Guest blog: The Cercle Sportif Français: Elite cosmopolitanism in Shanghai’s Former French Concession. | Visualising China

Reposting the newest entry from the HPC blog, which studies the French Club. Also, sharing a photo that I saw in an old newspaper last night. Because we don't only want to look at murals and sculpture, do we?

Lastly, Lauren Walden's blog entry mentions an interesting two-page feature on the opening of the French Club, in the October 1926 issue of L'Illustration, which I extracted to post here (click the pages to see them large):
