《新中華画報》，1942年9月
這張封面照片出自《新中華画報》4.9（1942年9月），呈現一名不知名的中國偽軍成員身穿劍道家服裝。照片中（極可確認出自日本同盟通信社）除了帽子上的國民黨白日黨徽外，鮮少線索能指出當中是為一名中國男子。同一張照片也用於後來的宣傳刊物，慶祝中國偽軍向盟軍宣戰。這是這份雜誌唯一使用男性為封面的一次。《新中華画報》是雙語（中英）刊物，由日佔時期新聞工作者伍麟趾於1939年至1944年時期在上海出版，並發送至中國及東南亞地區。

還我們東亞人本來的面目

Ertong zuopin (works by children), II
This is a selection of images (most being pencil drawings) contributed to the magazine Ertong huakan (Children’s Pictorial) 9.10 (April 1941) by readers. The images offer a fascinating insight into the ways in which official ideas about the appearance of occupied China were reflected in the artwork of Chinese school children living in the RNG capital. Note the references to dawn, for example, the depictions of Japanese people, and the idyllic images of the Chinese countryside included in some of the drawings. Basketball remained a politically acceptable sport in occupied Nanjing despite its American provenance.

Huanan huabao (South China Graphic) cover, January 1941
This cover image is taken from Huanan huabao (South China graphic) 3.1 (January 1941). The staged photograph deploys one of the standard tropes of Japanese propaganda in occupied China, i.e., that of a Japanese woman and Chinese woman fraternising with each other. This trope was derived from Manchukuo propaganda and the notion of “gozoku kyōwa” (“the harmony of the five races”), as well as attempts to feminise the image of an occupied China. Note how the Japanese woman is pictured as being slightly higher than her Chinese peer.

Ertong zuopin (works by children), I
This is a selection of images (most being pencil drawings) contributed to the magazine Ertong huakan (Children’s Pictorial) 9.10 (April 1941) by readers. The images offer a fascinating insight into the ways in which official ideas about perceived notions of student behaviour in occupied China were reflected in the artwork of Chinese school children living in the RNG capital. Two of the drawings in this selection, for example, relate to the hardships of studying (in difficult weather, poor light, etc), while one depicts children playing in a classroom.
