Preface to the Series
After the initiation of the national Project for the Compilation of the History of the Qing Dynasty, the director of the compilation committee, Professor Dai Yi, proposed a new framework, having consulted with scholars from home and abroad. This new framework consists of general records, gazettes, biographies, historical charts, and pictorial records. It was indeed an innovative decision to include pictorial records in the compilation of the history of the Qing Dynasty. Because of this, we started to collect true-to-life paintings, old photographs, pictures, and drawings of objects and documents with historical value, both at home in China and from abroad. We compiled some of these pictorial resources into a series entitled A Historical Record of the Qing Dynasty. China’s historical records are all textual documents. Yet, despite this, generations of scholars repeatedly proposed using texts and pictures or illustrations side by side to make the records livelier. Due to various constraints, it was almost impossible to record history in a format that was both textual and pictorial. Fortunately imperial court painters and folk artists in each dynasty of Chinese history left a large number of paintings depicting real people and events of their time. This has not only greatly compensated for the deficiency of textual records, but also presented more accurate and vivid information than mere text.

Introduction
Tianjin is one of the most important cities in northern China and a gate to the nation’s capital. To some extent, Tianjin in the history of pre-modern China is a microcosm of Chinese society at that time. After the first Opium War in 1840, the Western powers accelerated their incursion and plunder of China. During the second Opium War, the Qing Dynasty was forced to sign the Treaty of Tianjin with Great Britain, France, and the United States of America. In 1860, it was again forced to sign the Treaty of Beijing with Great Britain, France, and russia. According to these treaties, Tianjin was designated as a trade port, paving the way for the Western powers to economically exploit Tianjin and China as a whole. In 1861, the Tianjin Customs Office was formally established and put in the charge of some British men. The British influence was further enhanced when Gustav von Detring became chief officer of the Tianjin Customs Office in 1877. He held this position for 22 years. British officers set up foreign firms and post offices in Tianjin, promoted compradors, monopolized navigation in Tianjin Port and internal rivers, dumped commodities, speculated on opium and ammunition, and seized special local products and raw materials for industrial purposes. As a result, the city’s previous mode of economic self-sufficiency was destroyed, plunging it into a semi-colonial and semi-feudal state. On the positive side, these changes promoted the rise of pre-modern industry and commerce in Tianjin and turned the city into one of northern China’s most important industrial and commercial bases. xi

Registered Trademarks and Business Firm Seals
01
This section contains various types of registered trademark designs and business firm seals. Trademark registration peaked between 1904–1911, after the promulgation of The Trial Statute of Trademark Registration, and foreign companies accounted for the majority of trademarks registered. Most of the products registered with a trademark were from medicine and the dye trade; other products were such daily necessities as cotton cloth, tobacco, wine, sewing needles, and clocks and watches. Compared with present-day trademarks, most of the designs chosen by companies at that time were objects with practical or literal meanings, such as a galloping horse, a roaring tiger, a portrait of a person, or a pair of scissors. They were mostly printed in black and white, but some were quite colorful. Many were drawn with simple, bold lines, but there were also those painted with a fine brush. Each photograph in this section consists of a page from the letter of trademark registration and the actual trademark sign itself. The letter specifies the appearance of the mark, the category of the article registered, and the registration time, etc. The seals of early industrial and commercial businesses featured herein clearly reflect the variety of trades in Tianjin, providing a historical sketch of Tianjin as an industrial and commercial hub in northern China from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.

These passes show us today how vibrant Tianjin and its surrounding areas were in commerce and trade, and they are invaluable to our research into the forms and management of logistics and domestic and foreign trade at that time.

Contracts and Bills
03
The contracts and bills included in this section have been selected from the abundant records of banking and real estate transactions in the late Qing Dynasty. They are wide in variety: for example, for those related to banking, there are stocks, IOUs, cash deposit certificates, and bank drafts, reflecting the high degree of sophistication and buoyancy of the banking market at that time. Thanks to the the standardization efforts of the authorities and economic organizations, a fairly uniform style had emerged for the making of stocks, cash deposit certificates, and bank drafts. In addition, we have also selected contracts and agreements regarding property borrowing, lending, selling, leasing, and assigning. These documents still remained in a relatively primitive state, i.e., they were written with ink and paper, and undersigned as the only and final proof of a transaction.

Among the postal records kept in the Tianjin Municipal Archives are many stamps, postmarks, envelopes, memorials, postcards, and licenses. Most of them appeared in a period from the late 1880s up to the early 20th century, when the postal business in Tianjin and its surrounding areas started up, made continuous improvements, and became more established. The photographs selected in this section exhibit varied styles, non-standardized ones existing side by side with standardized ones, giving us a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of the postal system in Tianjin.
