China 1843-1974


China 1843-1974 China 1843-1974; Vintage and Collectible Books.
For more than two decades our firm has focused on studying the propaganda created by Chairman Mao, especially that which preceded the Cultural Revolution during the Sino-Japanese war and leading up to the establishment of the People’s Republic of China. As the world begins to re-open after sheltering itself from a global pandemic, here is our modest selection from our inventory of
Chinese propaganda from the period 1843 to 1974. To this end we acknowledge the assistance of Alan Gong Lunxu, who previously worked with Exceptional (Beijing) Auctions Company in
cataloguing their sales of “red collection” memorabilia. Here are 57 items of early books on Chinese history, language and literature, education, military and political pamphlets, woodcut cartoon books,
music and theatre.
