192595101Ryuzan Chosen: Chosen Railways 1925. Very Good. single sheet folded several times to produce a 12 panel brochure on one side and a map of Heijo with a smaller map of Shingishu-Antung and various small 18 black and white photos around the edge on the other side. 9 x 19 cm. when folded and 44 x 38 cm. when fully unfolded. Text in English. Back cover of folded brochure heavily scuffed and lacking some of the text which briefly described hotels under the management of S.M.R. -- this damage probably occurred when this scarce item was "rescued" from an album or scrapbook. One of the photos surrounding the map shows the Railway bridge built by the Japanese 1909-1911 over the Yalu River between what is now Dandong on the Chinese side and Sinuiju in North Korea. Heij then a modest-sized city is known today as Pyongyang and is the capital of North Korea with a population of more than three million. Chosen Railways was under control of South Manchuria Railway between 1917 and 1925. Chosen Railways unknown

1940234221940. Chinese prisoner execution photo archive from Japanese-occupied Manchuria circa 1940s recording the custody restraint killing and aftermath of Chinese prisoners under Japanese military control. Japan's occupation of Manchuria followed the Mukden Incident of September 18 1931 when Japanese forces used an explosion along the South Manchurian Railway as the pretext for military conquest; in 1932 Japan established Manchukuo a puppet state that drew international condemnation through the League of Nations' Lytton Commission. By the 1940s Manchuria remained a central zone of Japanese military power in northeast China where occupation authority puppet-state policing and anti-guerrilla campaigns produced summary punishments prisoner shootings and public terror against local Chinese populations.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 7 silver gelatin photographs each 4" x 6.5" Manchuria circa 1940s. Japanese soldiers in field uniforms and peaked caps surround blindfolded Chinese captives seated in open ground near an earthen bank; in one scene soldiers level rifles toward bound or blindfolded prisoners at close range. Several men lie face down or on their sides at the base of the embankment with soldiers and civilian onlookers standing above them; plain wooden boxes or planks sit nearby suggesting prepared burial or removal. Another scene records a prisoner being physically restrained in a courtyard or village setting with tiled rooflines uniformed soldiers and civilian men crowded around him. The sequence moves between armed custody execution ground bodies on the earth and prisoner handling under guard giving the group a direct evidentiary relationship to Japanese military violence in occupied Manchuria.<br /> <br /> Manchuria was not a peripheral theater in Japan's war in China; it was the region where the Kwantung Army transformed a railway-security pretext into territorial occupation state building under Manchukuo and a long-running military presence that helped bring international crisis in the 1930s and full-scale war in Asia. The scenes preserved here are not battlefront combat views but close-range records of prisoners controlled by armed soldiers making the archive especially significant for the study of occupation violence Japanese military practice wartime China and the fate of Chinese civilians or irregular fighters labeled enemies under Japanese authority. Light edge wear and minor fading to some areas; images remain primarily clean; overall very good condition. The archive preserves a compact but stark record of military force in Japanese-occupied Manchuria grounded in the physical proximity between guards prisoners rifles and bodies. unknown
