The counter-revolutionary and restorationist crimes of Catholicism before Liberation
mid 1960s
Publisher unknown
54x38 cm.
BG D25/98

A two-part series detailing the counterrevolutionary activities and "crimes" perpetrated by the Roman Catholic Mission in China before and after 1949. Both series are incomplete: the first part lacks the opening sheets; the second part lacks at least one sheet, and possibly more at the end.
Due to this, it is impossible to indicate when the series were published, where, by whom, and for what specific purpose. The last evil deed discussed, at the end of part two, dates from July 1965, during the "Four Clean Ups" movement (四清运动). This suggests that the two series were published some time in the mid-1960s.
The names of the foreign missionaries have been identified as far as possible.

Top, "This is Jiang Yuqing, a girl who was tortured and emaciated in Zhangjiaxiang Orphanage in Chengdu, Sichuan." (这是四川成都张家巷孤女院被折磨骨瘦如柴的女孩子蒋玉清).

Below, "This is a baby who has been tortured for a long time in the orphanage, malnourished, and dying." (这是被孤儿院长期折磨,营养不良,奄奄一息的婴儿).
