Now available! Brill have made all issues of The North-China herald and Supreme Court and consular gazette (to give it its full title!) from 1850 to 1940 available in a digitized format.
The newspaper was published in Shanghai, which was "at the heart of China’s dealing with the Euro-American world and a city at the forefront of developments in Chinese politics, culture, education and the economy. As the official journal for British consular notifications, and announcements of the Shanghai Municipal Council, it is the first – and sometimes only – point of reference for information and comment on a range of foreign and Chinese activities." Brill website
It "is universally acclaimed as the prime printed source in any language for the history of the foreign presence in China from around 1850 to the 1940s" Brill website
