1926 a gelatin silver print panoramic photo of Shanghai Bund, starting from Yan'an East Road in the south, the north to the Suzhou River, can see the classical Western buildings of the time on the Bund, with the Pudong Ferry Terminal in the foreground. A foreign warship was moored on the Huangpu River, opposite the weather tower.
At the same time, could vaguely see the new customs building under construction on the north side of the HSBC building. From this, we can judge the year when the photo was taken. The photo is 145cm long and 20.5cm wide. There are some small cracks and repairs on the photo.
