An album of postcards from Japan, China, Hong Kong and a few from European countries. 25.8 x 33 cm / 14.2 x 9.1 cm (postcard size). Contains a total of 197 postcards – some in colour, some postmarked and some with postmark smudges – with four on each page, inserted into holders. Black original half-linen binding with lacquered wooden covers.

(Slightly discoloured throughout, more so at the edges. Some pages are faded and others show slight smudging. The nacre details on the cover have been removed. The lacquered covers have areas missing and flaking; the back cover is more severely damaged.)

Depictions of Chinese architecture, cities and landmarks, views, scenes from public and private life, and much more.
