CHINA Peking Main Street - 1882 German Print Xylograph

Description: INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:? The shipping rates shown are for '1st Class International Package' with tracking.? Ebay is also promoting their EIS International Shipping program on sellers pages. I do not use this program because it is more expensive, slower, not very transparent, and frustrating to the buyer, if something goes wrong. Do not select it, if ebay does show it as an option. Thank you.

Original Narrative: It is not an easy task to walk about in Pekin. Whether you are on foot or on horseback, you have not the time to look about you ; and yet, if everything is not beautiful, all is curious, new , and interesting. But your attention is absorbed by the holes which the rain has made in the flags, by the deep ruts left by the cart -wheels, by the little bridges of planks thrown over black and stinking streams, by the long files of camels with two humps (the height of elephants) which are bearing Mongols with large faces, flattened noses, foolish laughs, but frank and loyal expressions. Beware, too, of the hack -cabs which abound. They are carts harnessed to one or twoponies, covered by the half of a cylindrical tent, and providedwith a kind of hood or awning, which shelters both coachman and horses. These primitive carriages circulate by hundreds, for litters and sedan -chairs are the privilege of mandarins of a certain rank. Martin2001 Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy!
