1967réf. 16838Urumqi XinJiang Uyghur Autonomous Region: Cultural Revolution Committee of Urumqi / Xinjiang Army Divisioni 1967/8. Two extraordinary hand-crafted parade banners ca. 110" x 84" 9 feet x 7 feet one slightly smaller. Each entirely composed of hook-work with colored yarns on white muslin backing. Slight age-toning and soil; a few threads loose but no significant losses; Near Fine condition overall. Folded and stored in original velvet draw-string carrying bags as found. Both banners bear the inscription "Chairman Mao Reviewing the Great Army of the Cultural Revolution" and depict the August 1966 mass rally at Tiananmen Gate where more than 10 million Red Guards from all over China converged to express their solidarity with Mao and his second-in-command Lin Biao. Additional text on the lower banner reads "Long Live Chairman Mao for ten thousand years" and "Sailing in the ocean requires a helmsman" -- both quotes from Lin Biao. The agencies responsible for the banners are identified in lower right of each: "Cultural Revolution Committee of Xinjiang Army Division 1968" upper banner and "Cultural Revolution Committee of Urumqi 1967" lower. The presence of Biao the figure to the right of Mao holding the Little Red Book in the top banner is of particular interest. Biao compiler of The Quotations of Chairman Mao popularly known as the "Little Red Book" and coiner of the phrase "Maoism" was probably more responsible than any other figure for creating the cult of personality around Mao particularly at the time of the Cultural Revolution. He quickly ascended Party ranks and was widely seen as Mao's obvious successor. But in 1971 Biao was exposed in the process of an apparent coup attempt the details of the event have never been made public. He died in an airplane crash attempting to leave China and from this point forward was officially condemned as a traitor by the Communist Party; any record of his achievements on behalf of the Revolution was expunged from the official record and any positive image of Biao would have been confiscated and destroyed as a matter of course - suggesting either that these banners left China prior to 1971 or that they remained out of sight until some later date. The second possibility is plausible given whence the banners issued - both were created by Red Guard branches in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region an extremely remote province in China's northwest corner and for many years the center of a militant independence movement for Uyghur and other Turkic minorities.

The mouthpiece of the Qing court the Peking Gazette was the "most important public source of information about the workings of the late Qing state. Through the gazette 'one is able to feel the pulse of the whole empire' wrote Jehu Lewis Shuck the first Baptist missionary to China" Harris p. 3. From the Macartney embassy onwards foreign missionaries merchants and diplomats relied on the Gazette as an indispensable source of information. Translations of articles regularly appeared in English-language newspapers journals and reports as well as in annual compilation volumes. The wide-ranging index for this instalment includes references for example to opium dens in the Forbidden City silk and porcelain manufacturing extortion riots and river management. Octavo.

1867réf. 192846Fuzhou: 1867. A unique souvenir of 19th-century China A who's who of missionary and diplomatic life in 19th-century China inscribed by Baldwin to Burr on the first leaf. Among the many figures represented are Eliza Bridgman one of the first American female missionaries in China George Seward US consul-general in Shanghai W. A. P. Martin a professor at the Qing court's Tongwenguan in Beijing and Esther E. Baldwin a champion of Chinese immigration to the US. Stephen Livingstone Baldwin 1835-1902 began his missionary service in Fuzhou in 1858 and spent a total of almost two decades in China. In compiling this collection he added biographical information on each signatory often recording when they arrived or left China and their professional position or conference affiliations. The recipient Jonathan Kelsey Burr 1825-1882 was a Methodist reverend like Baldwin but served the entirety of his ministry in the US. Other signatures belong for example to the sinologist-translators James Legge and John Chalmers Charles Sinclair British consul Fuzhou Samuel Wells Williams Justus Doolittle and E. F. C. Magrath who shortly after she arrived in China in 1858 opened one of the first schools for girls in Hong Kong. Duodecimo 150 x 110 mm. With 53 clipped signatures laid onto 11 ruled leaves 8 signatures direct to leaves manuscript captions. Recent marbled boards green label on front cover. Leaves with a few nicks or chips a few letters of annotations just touched by guarding at gutter: a very good example. hardcover
