1910rif. 27302Guangdong 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."

1895rif. 182165Shanghai: Published at the Statistical Department of the Inspectorate General of Customs 1895-1905. I believe the Inspectorate aided by its Medical Officers can do good work A lengthy run of this valuable specialist compendium. Each issue had a circulation of around 500 copies only the majority sent to customs stations and libraries as well as diplomats and naval officers and copies are therefore rare in commerce. The Chinese Maritime Customs Service was founded in 1854 by Britain and other foreign powers to collect taxes on maritime trade for the Chinese government but its remit quickly expanded to include domestic customs administration the postal service waterway and harbour management and scientific research. In 1870 Inspector-General Sir Robert Hart instituted this series information to be provided by the medical officers assigned to customs stations. Issues were issued on a yearly or half-yearly basis sometimes in double numbers.

With plates charts maps and diagrams throughout some folding and a few in colour; occasional text in French.
