Fing Wing, A MELICAN MAN.

Reading edition

Illustration from The Automatic Toy Works Manufacturers of the Best Novelties in Mechanical and Other Toys

This image, with its shaven head, long queue and quaint looking dress, gives a striking and life-like picture of a Chinese Laundryman. When at work, he bends over the tub, and rubs the garment which he holds in his hands with a naturalness so perfect he might easily be mistaken for a real Celestial.

Price, $2.50.
