Help - Where to look next????

I think this would be in a Barefoot Asia catalog, and there's probably some specialized Chinese revenue catalog as well. khj might be able to confirm as well. ("Calling Dr. Bombay.")

But at least I'm pretty sure you're not overlooking it in Scott or in a pre-printed album.

I think I see a character on there for "Ministry", and if I had to take a wild guess, I'd say it's a revenue stamp for a ministry overseeing construction or manufacturing. I used to be able to read a lot more characters, but it's one of those use it or lose it things.

I agree with Philatarium that this is a Chinese revenue but not listed in Scott. I have two different Yang catalogs but neither of them cover imperial china. Also not Korea for sure.

Thanks for all the help....

"Page 5 contains miscellaneous revenues, labels, and two gigantic Cigarette Tax stamps, perhaps intended to be large enough to seal a box of cigarettes."
