Physical Description
1 photograph : sepia ; 25 x 20 cm in matt 45 x 30 cm
Material Details
Matte has a cluster of Chinese characters on the bottom left corner and on the middle right side. Chinese characters were translated into English in 2018.
On the right hand side, it is written ""for Mr. Wong Hong to keep"".
On the bottom of the left hand side, it is written the name of the photographer (last name is Lam). The last character of his name has no matching word in Chinese. One of the characters on the bottom left generally means younger brother (related by blood), but with close friends, the younger person may refer himself as such too. Since they had two different last name ""Wong"" and ""Lam"", therefore these two people could not be related.
The final character on the bottom left means ""a gift"".

The notice publicizes the service offered by Way Sang Yuen Wat Kee & Co where money could be transferred by an individual bank to their country of origin. The rear of the shop acted as an unofficial post office for recent Chinese immgrants who needed a permanent mailing address. The notice was translated in English, the larger words translate to: "Our shop offers remittance service to Hong Kong. The process is faster than others no matter how much you are wiring. If the family of any overseas compatriots who are living in Hong Kong need money urgently, [we] can also speed up the remittance. Your patronage is very welcomed.". The smaller words translate to: "The valued customers have to take care of the remittance fee on your own. Connection to any city in the Canton province; fast and proper remittance."
