Shanghai Street Scene (1)

The street in this picture is the Bund, or the road nearest the river YangtseKiang; really the principal business street; containing as it does nearly all the banks and offices. It is also the fashionable drive where at sundown the European residents turn out in full array.

The Phonoscope, 08/1898.
