Chinese Paper Gods
The images in this collection were assembled in 1931 by a Christian missionary in Beijing (Peking). "The images are divided initially by usage: Those which were purchased to be burned immediately ... and those which were purchased to be displayed for a year" in areas such as the front door and kitchen. Also includes essays on New Year's prints, reading the images, and conservation. From the C.V. Starr East Asian Library, Columbia University.
