Beijing, The Ministry of Foreign Affairs Printing Office and Yuan Shikai’s Presidential Office Printing Office 1915, 200x125mm, paperback. Cover made from paper produced from blue sandalwood bark (Qingtan / Pteroceltis tatarinowii) and inner pages made from rice-straw paper (Xuan paper) folded in the Chuanzi (traditional thread-bound or butterfly pamphlet style) - is characteristic of elite government publications of the era. - Bearing the red seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the bottom right-hand corner of the first page. - The use of Seal Script (Zhuanshu) for the title asserts historical legitimacy and archaism, while the crisp Song/Ming Regular Script (Kaishu) was the gold standard for official, highly readable governmental documentation. Documents of this nature : printed directly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Printing Office and Yuan Shikai’s Presidential Office Printing Office, were produced in incredibly limited runs. Because Yuan Shikai’s empire collapsed after just 83 days, and his regime was immediately discredited, vast quantities of imperial presidential papers were destroyed, abandoned, or lost in the subsequent warlord era.The presence of the official red seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs anchors its authenticity, elevating it from a mere historical curiosity to an archival-grade artifact. - Book in very good condition.
unpaginated, 7 leaves folded in half, written in classical/literary Chinese (Wenyanwen); calligraphic styles: ancient seal script (Zhuanshu) on the title page and clear regular script (Kaishu) in the Song / Ming style, Pour un paiement via PayPal, veuillez nous en faire la demande et nous vous enverrons une facture PayPal
