Exquisitely produced — bound in sandalwood linen and presented in a matching linen case with a button-tie closure and stamped Chinese yin mark — this album offers a vivid impression of pre-World War II China. Stanley Gamble, the grandson of the co-founder of Proctor & Gamble, took three extended journeys through China from 1917 to 1932. His surveys of life in Beijing and rural northern China included the remarkable photographs reproduced here, paired with Chinese poetry.
