CHINA Old Colour Postcard 4 Chinese PRISONERS in CANGUE

Publisher: M. Sternberg, Hongkong.
Background: A cangue is a device used for public humiliation and corporal punishment in China and other parts of Asia. It was similar to the stocks used in the West, except that the board of the cangue was not fixed to a base, and had to be carried around by the prisoner.
