Collection of three Art Deco panoramic views of Chinese cities. The first depicts the harbor of Canton , bustling with nautical traffic. A British naval ship, armed seaplane, junk, and ferry appear amidst the shoreline of the city while a few formations of planes fly overhead. The other two views of Shanghai show the busy car and foot traffic of a typical day. Small squadrons of planes also appear in this pair. The artist's name and names of the cities appear in Chinese calligraphy on their corresponding prints.
