Historical Chinese Postcard Project: 1896 - 1920

This database project studies the first wave of postcards
with a Chinese subject. Users not only find images of the
postcards, but also their historical context information
about what they are, who produced them and where, how they
were used, and what's their significance. The growing
collection focuses on early (1896-1920) postcards of China
with the bulk back to the time of the late imprial (before
1911). It has stopped updating in 2004 and the 462 images
the site hosts are available to view and download.
