The Chinese in California, 1850-1925 illustrates 
nineteenth and early twentieth century Chinese immigration 
to California through about 8,000 images and pages of 
primary source materials. Included are photographs, 
original art, cartoons and other illustrations; letters, 
excerpts from diaries, business records, and legal 
documents; as well as pamphlets, broadsides, speeches, 
sheet music, and other printed matter. These documents 
describe the experiences of Chinese immigrants in 
California, including the nature of inter-ethnic tensions.

immigrants to commerce and business, architecture and art, 
agriculture and other industries, and cultural and social 
life in California. Chinatown in San Francisco receives 
special treatment as the oldest and largest community of 
Chinese in the United States. Although necessarily 
selective, such a large body of materials presents a full 
spectrum of representation and opinion. The materials in 
this online compilation are drawn from collections at The 
Bancroft Library, University of California Berkeley; The 
Ethnic Studies Library, University of California Berkeley; 
and The California Historical Society, San Francisco.
