The nostalgic era of the 1920s and 1930s is reflected in all its glory in this compilation of calendar art, posters, cigarette advertisements, and display signs from the bygone days of a newly-emerging urban China. Increasingly influenced by a cosmopolitan Western sensibility yet unmistakably Chinese in nature, these lavish color posters and clever advertising and marketing slogans harken back to a glamorous era in Chinese history and culture. Richly illustrated, this book will be of great interest for collectors and admirers of 20th century Chinese popular art.
