<div>Dear Colleagues,<br> <br>The East Asia Image Collections, an open-access digital repository<br>hosted at Lafayette College, has recently added 259 postcards and 300<br>negatives. The website now contains over 3700 records of imagery from<br>
East Asia, mostly from the period 1905-1945, with one subcollection<br>of images from 1950s Japan.<br> <br><a href="http://digital.lafayette.edu/collections/eastasia" target="_blank"><font color="#0068cf">http://digital.lafayette.edu/collections/eastasia</font></a><br>
<br>Here are the descriptions of our two most recently added subcollections:<br> <br>Imperial Postcard Collection<br> <br>The Imperial Postcard Collection consists of imagery from Japan and<br>its colonies, wartime China, and selected areas of the wider<br>
imperialized world, from 1900 to 1945. "Manners and Customs" cards<br>from Manchuria, North and Central China, Korea, Honshu, and Hokkaido<br>are prominent. Also included are images associated with
the<br>Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905), the Manchurian Incident (1931) and<br>the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937), as well as portraits of Japanese<br>heroes, royalty and statesmen. Cards that cataloged and displayed the<br>
world's colonized peoples according to racial type or ethnic<br>classification are also featured.<br> <br>Gerald & Rella Warner Dutch East Indies Negatives<br> <br>US Consul to Taiwan Gerald Warner and his wife Rella created these<br>
275 photographic negatives between June 11, 1938 and July 27, 1938.<br>Most (257) were taken in the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia) during a<br>vacation from consular duties in Taiwan. The remainder were taken in<br>Hong Kong harbor (17) and Shantou (1). The following themes are most<br>
prominent: working conditions and equipment in ports and harbors,<br>tourist attractions (including Borobudur, Balinese drama, and temple<br>architecture), agricultural scenes, village life, and local markets.<br>The
captions for these images are taken from hand-written comments in<br>the Warners' photo albums. Gift of the Estate of Gerald and Rella Warner.<br> <br>Suggestions, corrections, and comments to individual records or the<br>
site would be much appreciated,<br> <br>thanks,<br> <br>Paul Barclay, Department of History<br>Lafayette College<br>Easton, PA 18042<br><a href="mailto:barclayp@lafayette.edu" target="_blank">barclayp@lafayette.edu</a><br>
