Where any such tax sale is so adjourned or readjourned after advertisement, no additional advertisement or notice shall be necessary for such adjourned or readjourned sale. No such adjournment or readjournment shall invalidate the lien of any tax due and unpaid, or any penalty or interest due thereon; but the lien of all such taxes shall be fully preserved until the date fixed for such sale, in accordance with this act.
