Shanghai

Bucklin China Archive: "In 1923, Harold Bucklin took his family on a remarkable journey from Providence, Rhode Island to Shanghai, China, where he produced an exquisite body of work of large format photographs of Pre-Revolutionary China using a Graflex camera". This beautiful web site offers high quality photographs of China in the early 1920s by Harold Bucklin. It is a carefully designed project by the Bucklin Family that takes the reader onto various 'Photo essays'. Harold Bucklin stayed in Shanghai in 1923-1924 as Visiting Professor of Sociology at Shanghai College (as part of a program at Brown University). His collection includes many valuable pictures of the city and its people.

Taiwan

Gerald Warner Collection: The Gerald Warner Taiwan Image Collection is a photographic record of a US consul's impressions of urban and rural life in Taiwan under Japanese colonial rule. Totaling 340 photographs and postcards gathered by Warner between August 26, 1937 and March 8, 1941, these images provide a snapshot of Taiwan's hybrid culture of Chinese, Taiwanese, Austronesian, and Japanese influences. The subjects represented are wide-ranging, including clothing, arboriculture, urban structures, agriculture, religious rituals, topography, highways, parks, and more. These digitized images have been researched and annotated to serve as a web-based encyclopedia of colonial Taiwan's material culture.
