Notes

Historical Photographs of China album reference: Hv46. Rev. Claude L. Pickens, Jr.'s trip to northwest China, part 1. General note: Excerpt from unpublished photo essay, plate 29: "Three walks of life in Kuyuan. The friendly ahung at one of the mosques outside the South Gate is flanked by a merchant and a soldier. Here we find the three avenues along which a male Mohammedan boy trains to pass through life. They excel in each of these professions." Access to original photographs and albums in the Rev. Claude L. Pickens, Jr. Collection is restricted. Photographs and images from the collection may be reproduced only with written permission. Contact the Harvard-Yenching Library for permissions and fees.
