Notes
  • Translated title: Little Chon and Long John
  • A flip book in which a small Chinese girl tries to get the attention of a tall British man, angering him, a chase ensues, and then she trips him into a river, taking his hat as he floats downstream. Undertones of anti-imperialist and anti-British sentiment.
