Published, except for a wartime break 1941-45, from 1864 to 1950, the North China Daily News (in Chinese: Zilin Xibao), was the most influential foreign daily inEast Asia. It constitutes the key source for the history of Westerninterests in China for most of China’s so-called ‘century of nationalhumiliation’, ca.1839-1949, and of the transnational history of EastAsia.The North China Daily News printed about 70% more news than the weekly North China Herald, supplemented with detailed dispatches from the Outports, and around 40per cent more textual content and 70 per cent more pictorial andadvertising content. But the North China Daily News was far more than an expanded version of the North China Herald.Besides tracking key news developments and commercial news in Chinaand throughout East Asia, the social life of the foreign settlements isrichly illustrated, with copious classified ads and Personal and WantedNotices. The Wednesday Book Pages and the Cinema and entertainment pages are here in full. The Monday and Thursday Woman’s Page is a trove ofcontemporary fashion and family life. The photographs constitute avirtual Who’s Who of the settler communities. The full-colourillustrated North China Sunday News Magazines show foreign Chinaat its leisure. The Correspondence pages print the often heated concerns of the Daily’s estimated 20,000 repeat readers.Published here in full colour 300 ppi scans from original issues andgrayscale, this collection offers a greatly expanded run of the Dailyedition from 1869-1949, extensive and unique holdings of the Sunday Magazine and Special Supplements, a significant collection of the Municipal Gazette, organ of theShanghai Municipal Council from 1908-1940, and a rich selection of rarebooks and pamphlets from the imprint of the North China Daily News and its parent, the North-China Herald. Finally, for aficionados of “Sapajou”, legendary cartoonist of thislegendary newspaper, this collection offers a complete run of thetopical cartoons published during his tenure as lead cartoonist at the“Old Lady of the Bund”, 1923-1941.
