With 32 full=page woodblock plates printed in color. Oblong 4to original printed wrappers sewn spine soiling minor repairs.</p><p>The author Chou Han is described by the translator Griffith John 1831-1912 as 'a gentleman of high official rank Taotai in Hunan' and was part of an orchestrated propaganda campaign aimed at discouraging Western Christian missionaries from working and traveling in China. This volume was perhaps his most significant and horrific attack on western culture managing a "reptile press" in Hunan creating unrest and distrust amongst the Chinese people see John's "A Voice from China" 1907 p. 220. Chou Han himself is probably represented in plates IX XIII XXVI and XXIX; the images are virulently anti-foreigner and specifically anti-Christian. John translated and circulated the present work to draw attention to the British authorities of the problems faced by missionaries in Asia. </p><p>Very Rare.

China; Fireworks
Collection of 16 Chinese Firework package decorations for the firm Fat Shan Lai Wo Cheong
Guangdong China 1910. Ephemera. Very good condition. Attractive Chinese firework labels with the manufacturers name 'Fat Shan Lai Wo Cheong' printed with a red rubber stamp on the verso of most. According to the description of a group of labels held by the MOA at the University of British Columbia they were made in Guangzhou Guandong and Canton China between 1850 and 1910. 17 elaborate foil and tissue or paper backed labels with colorful hand painted illustrations of men women and children flowers butterflies ranging in shapes and sizes 3x1.5" to 7.5x7.5" to 10.5 x 5". Detailed scenes of people dressed in robes with curtains and flowers surrounding them and interesting facial expressions. "Gold labels were handmade in workshops using assembly line techniques. Artisans first cut out the labels' overall shape from bronze or copper foil. Next they apply a thin rice paper backing to strengthen the foil. To texturize the foil the artisans used pointed tools to emboss designs. These sheets were pinned to a wall or table so that several painters could work on them. The backgrounds would be painted first followed by the details in the foreground using smaller brushes. During the last application even finer brushes were used for the facial features and calligraphy. Some shiny areas of the original bronze or copper foil were left exposed. It was also common to add a layer of gold leaf designs pressed out of hand-carved wooden blocks to further accentuate the design. Firecrackers were and are used to ward off evil spirits honor deities and to celebrate special occasions. Manufacturers and merchants would order bulk firecrackers pack them into wooden crates and decorate the crates with these labels to entice potential distributors and consumers."

Chicago: October League 1976. 16 pages. 5.5" x 8.5" illustrated with black and white photos of Women's Day marches the woman are all performing tasks at work on the image. The Liberation of Women in China. Printed by Highland Park: Internationals Socialists n.d. 49 pages. 5.5" x 8.5" inches. Original wrappers Pamphlet. Argues that the liberation of women in China had become subordinate to the needs of the state and industrialization. Highland Park: International Socialists n.d. circa 1970s. Original printed wrappers 49 pages. 5.5 × 8.5 inches. Tables footnotes.<br /> <br /> A scarce radical pamphlet issued by the International Socialists examining the gender politics of post-revolutionary China. The work critiques the Chinese Communist Party's claims to women's emancipation contending that the liberation of women had been made subordinate to the demands of state-building and industrial growth. In opposition to official party rhetoric the pamphlet situates women's issues within the broader political economy arguing that while the Communist revolution opened limited avenues for women's participation in the labor force and public life genuine equality was sacrificed to the state's overriding needs of production modernization and social control. Tables and statistical data are included to support its argument with footnotes directing readers to both Chinese sources and Western Marxist analysis. Pamphlets from the International Socialists are relatively uncommon especially those with sustained attention to global feminist and socialist struggles. This text is significant in documenting how New Left and Trotskyist organizations in the United States attempted to reframe Chinese Communism through a feminist lens situating women's emancipation not as a fulfilled revolutionary promise but as a deferred and compromised project. For institutional collections it offers an important perspective on the intersections of gender Marxism and internationalism in the mid-20th century while also reflecting the intellectual currents of American socialist critique. Mild wear to wrappers otherwise well-preserved. Overall. unknown

1942. Photography. Very good condition. A collection of black & white photographs in and around Pekin Beijing taken in about 1925. While the photographer is unidentified the photos are clear and well framed. These are unusual images as they seem to have been taken by an American but no American is ever shown in the photographs. The photos illustrate the sites and trades of China and there are also images that refer to Sun Yat Sen including a photo captioned with his name possibly him with a group of others walking in a square. Shot number 76 is of 'Sun Yat Sen Funeral rehersal' sic at the Temple of Azure Clouds" which took place in 1925. <br /> <br /> Famous buildings include the Summer Palace Temple of Heaven Great Wall Altar of Heaven Forbidden City Sleeping Buddha Temple Cloud Tower Taoist Shrine Temple of Universe Summer Palace Marble Boat Pagoda Tientsin Dock the Great Wall etc. There are many street scenes with local people and merchants Tibetans at Lama Temple Pekin Donkey ready for shoeing Toy Peddlar sic with Gong Pekin old man and 2 bird cages Paint Shop Pekin camels Iceman Pekin Coal Carrier Defile near Wall Pekin Beggar Pekin Barber. <br /> <br /> "Unique among 20th-century Chinese leaders Sun is revered by both the Republic of China on Taiwan where he is officially the "Father of the Nation" as well as the People's Republic of China where he is officially the "Forerunner of the Revolution" for his instrumental role in the 1911 Revolution that successfully overthrew the Qing dynasty." wikipedia.<br /> <br /> One additional snapshot of a snowy American scene entitled 'Winter 1941-2" that was developed at the Westchester Photo Finishing Co. with Nutone process 4 1/8 x 5 1/8".

China; Photographs
Real photo postcards of the Xinhài Gémìng Xinhai Revolution of 1911 Taken by an American
1911. Photography. A group of 13 vernacular photographs printed on postcards taken in 1911 by an American who was involved in supporting the Xinhai Revolution of 1911. The postcards are all annotated on the verso and give a picture of US involvement in San Francisco Yokohama and Canton. Two postcards illustrate the ties with Japan. One is a photo of a group of six Japanese in Western clothing including a young woman in a large open touring car with the annotation "This picture was taken in front of the Clift sic House Aug. 20 1911. " Cliff house was a prominent hotel in San Francisco. At this time the U.S. Navy was entertaining the Japanese training squadron in San Francisco. Another card shows two American men in rickshaws "Jinrikshas in Yokohama Japan". We presume that these men were the American naval attachés or diplomats. The other 11 images are taken in Canton and two are related to the "72 Martyrs" that were beheaded. The annotations on the verso read:<br /> "Martyrs" who were beheaded by orders of Imperial Government for part they took in destroying the Viceroy's office 4/27/11. Soldiers are lined up on opposite side of pond just below people standing on embankment.; 11/19/11 Soldiers Rebels & sympathizers holding religious services at the graves of 72 "martyrs" buried in Canton cemetery. These were beheaded by orders of Imperial Govt. for party they took in destroying the Viceroy's office - 4/27/11. The rest are views of Canton-Canton River sampans & S. S. Wilmington in the distance American Gun boat; English Bridge Shameen to Canton a sign advertising "Yuen Hang Boulanger Canton" hangs to the right of the bridge; French Bridge Shameen to Canton this rather poor film; "One of the Bravest" on Shameen - looking up Central Ave. a soldier with a white domed hat and white puttees; Another view of the English Bridge Shameen to Canton; The American Consul's residence & office; Rear entrance to American consul's office - building on right used by the consul's coolies. Dr. Swan of Canton Hospital in his private sedan chair; along the Bund of Kook Four a suburb of Canton; View from the French Concession of Shameen looking towards Canton & near "French" Bridge. The Xinhai Revolution pinyin: Xinhài Gémìng also known as the Chinese Revolution or the Revolution of 1911 was a revolution that overthrew China's last imperial dynasty the Qing dynasty and established the Republic of China ROC. The revolution consisted of many revolts and uprisings. The turning point was the Wuchang uprising on 10 October 1911 which was the result of the mishandling of the Railway Protection Movement. The revolution ended with the abdication of the six-year-old Last Emperor Puyi on 12 February 1912 that marked the end of 2000 years of imperial rule and the beginning of China's early republican era. Dr. Sun Yat-Sen led the Xinhai Revolution to victory in 1911. <br /> The Republic of China in Taiwan and the People's Republic of China on the mainland both consider themselves the legitimate successors to the Xinhai Revolution and honor the ideals of the revolution including nationalism republicanism modernization of China and national unity. 10 October is commemorated in Taiwan as Double Ten Day the National Day of the ROC. In mainland China Hong Kong and Macau the day is celebrated as the Anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution. Wikipedia. unknown
