1963180349Springfield.: Clearinghouse. 1963. 572pp. Photographically reproduced technical report distributed by the Clearinghouse for Federal Scientific and Technical Information for research library circulation. Text very clean and sound original paper upper cover with a handwritten title on cover and spine and contractor code written in ink worn and a little torn at the staples lacks lower cover but otherwise complete. Clearinghouse card with the name and address of the University of Sydney employee who originally ordered it together with other details loosely inserted. A firm copy. Originally issued by the US Department of Commerce/ National Bureau of Standards. A US translation produced for America's Joint Publications Research Service of the "Korea Central Yearbook" Choson Chungang Nyongnam the official North Korean Yearbook for 1961. <br> <br>One of a series of yearbooks published annually since 1949 by the North Korean Central News Agency this volume covers policy developments North Korea's geography and population weather economic developments trade economic cooperation particularly with the USSR transport and commmunications education health sports the arts publications and broadcasting major events of the year and North Korea's engagement with international organizations. There are also extensive negative assessmentss of economic and social developments in South Korea. The yearbook's 570 pages are filled with the North Korean government's upbeat assessments of the wonders of its own nation's achievements but the volume is nonetheless a fascinating window into North Korean at a crucial point in its history. <br> <br>In 1961 North Korea was in the midst of the "Chollima Movement" - a plan which aimed to fast-track industrialisation - and the country had just completed its first five-year economic plan. It had also recently begun a program of encouraging the large-scale "repatriation" of ethnic Koreans from Japan and the report includes a section entitled "The Problem of Koreans Residing in Japan" which details North Korean support for Korean schools in Japan negotiations over the extension of the "repatriation" movement and efforts to remedy the "materialistic pholosophy" of Koreans who had relocated from Japan to North Korea. Despite the government's emphasis on economic autarchy North Korea was also cautiously expanding links to the outside world and the yearbook mentions the signing of trade agreements with non-governmental agencies in Japan India Australia and other countries. <br> <br>The section on the arts provides rich detail on North Korea's promotion of socialist realism and works depicting the "fervent patriotism and indominitable spirit of the revolutionary fighters". The yearbook details the successful songs plays musical dramas and films of the year and the expansion of artistic circles in workplaces schools etc. One element of the five year plan had been the promotion of athletics contests and the outcomes of this promotion program are discussed in the yearbook but it is interesting to note that the mass games which were later to become a cantral feature of North Korean perfomance art were only in their infancy and just receive a brief mention. <br>The volume is an exceptionally rich and valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of often impenetrable North Korean state. .

1960219665No publication details. circa1960s –70s based on design and material. Printed fabric pennant promoting Radio Pyongyang North Korea’s official broadcasting service. The image shows a stylised monument of two figures possibly symbolising industry and broadcasting with a laurel motif and radio waves under a red sky. Text in both Korean and English. Radio Pyongyang. “평양 방송” translates directly as Pyongyang Broadcasting. Text in Korean and English. 23.5 height x 11cm at top edge. <br> <br>A scarce example of early North Korean visual propaganda. Radio Pyongyang was founded in October 1945 and inaugurated programming with a live broadcast of Kim Il Sung's victory speech when he returned to Pyongyang at the end of WWII. The image on this pennant features a statue of two figures a worker and a peasant woman carrying a sheaf of rice riding the mythical horse Chollima symbolising speed strength and the spirit of the North Korean people. The Chollima movement which began in 1956 encouraged citizens to achieve extraordinary production and labour targets indicated by the sheaf of wheat symbolic of agricultural abundance. Radio Pyongyang helped to disseminaate the ideals of the Chollima movement and this pennant probably dates from after the Chollima Monument was unveiled in 1961. <br> <br>Provenance: Bought in China by a western collector in the late 20th century. .

1956215131956. African American Military History Korean War Unidentified photographer African American soldiers in South Korea 1956 documents Black military service within the early post armistice U.S. occupation of Korea and provides visual evidence of desegregation in practice following Executive Order 9981. Produced three years after the Korean Armistice Agreement the images situate African American enlisted men within the operational landscape of U.S. military engineering and logistical support during the Cold War consolidation of American presence on the Korean peninsula. The archive documents the role of Black soldiers in infrastructure maintenance transport and base security while also recording their proximity to Korean civilian life in a recovering war zone. The identification of the 376 Engineer Battalion places the material within the institutional framework of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers whose work underpinned military mobility and reconstruction during this period.<br /> <br /> South Korea 1956. Archive of 22 black and white silver gelatin photographs most measuring approximately 5 x 4 inches depicting African American soldiers stationed near a U.S. military installation likely in the Uijeongbu or Dongducheon corridor north of Seoul where engineering and support units were concentrated. Multiple images include signage identifying the "376 Engineer Battalion" while others show mixed-race groups of soldiers gathered near convoys of M35 2½ ton cargo trucks and smaller support vehicles used for personnel and supply transport. One photograph includes a Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar aircraft in the background confirming the logistical environment of cargo movement and aerial supply. Soldiers appear in standard issue fatigues with visible non commissioned officer insignia engaged in routine duties such as transport checkpoint supervision and base operations. Several photographs depict Korean civilians moving through nearby marketplaces and village spaces including women wearing traditional hanbok passing through areas of visible economic strain characterized by unpaved roads and temporary structures. English and Hangul signage including a storefront labeled "Kind Shop" further situates the images within a localized commercial environment shaped by U.S. military presence.<br /> <br /> The archive documents a transitional period in both U.S. military policy and Korean society as the formal desegregation of the armed forces intersected with the realities of overseas deployment in a recently devastated region. While integrated units are visible the clustering of Black soldiers within shared duties and informal groupings indicates the persistence of racialized social structures within the ranks. At the same time the photographs establish the everyday presence of American troops within civilian Korean spaces during early Cold War reconstruction linking military labor to broader geopolitical objectives in East Asia. Light surface wear including minor creasing and scattered abrasions; images remain clear with strong contrast. Overall very good condition. A cohesive visual record of African American military labor postwar occupation and cross cultural contact in Korea during a formative phase of U.S. global military expansion. unknown
