YANGTSZE RIVER
An album of photographs, titled 'Yangtsze Gorges' on upper cover [China: no date but circa 1925]. 4° (355 x 340mm). 22 gelatin sliver-print photographs (each 207 x 207mm. approximately) mounted recto only of 22 thin card leaves, the first with manuscript caption in ink to mount. (Some light marginal soiling to mounts.) Original grey/brown thick paper wrappers with red silk bands (small tears and creasing to covers, backstrip defective).
A fine series apparently by a single unidentified photographer, recording a journey up the river in the early 1920s. The images include a mixture of landscapes with views of various riverside buildings and settlements, and scenes including vessels, both Chinese and western, on the river, all provide and interesting record on Chinese life.
