Vintage Tiger Hill China Slides, Souvenir Box, 60s-70s

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This item is a vintage slide box titled "THE TIGER HILL," presented in its original yellow-dominant case. On the visible side, the cover features a photographic illustration of Tiger Hill, a historical and tourist site located in Suzhou, China. The graphic presentation, with its English title on a blue banner and inscriptions in Chinese characters, suggests an edition intended for export or an international audience from the 1960s to 1970s.

The box is protected by a transparent plastic sleeve, revealing the entire printed visual. In the upper left corner, a logo consisting of two "S"s in black squares is visible, which could correspond to a brand or a series classification. The central part of the cover features a shamrock or cloud-shaped cut-out, highlighting a color photograph of a tree-lined landscape and a pagoda, characteristic of Tiger Hill.

The bottom of the cover features another photographic banner, illustrating a detail of the site with rock formations and trees, reinforcing the tourist and documentary nature of this box. The Chinese inscription (中国北京幻灯制片厂) indicates manufacturing in Beijing, likely by a studio specializing in the production of educational and tourist slides or filmstrips.

In the photo, the item rests on a dark green fabric, accompanied by antique jewelry (brooch, pearls) that are not part of the lot. The plastic case suggests the presence of several slides or views inside, but only the exterior of the box is visible in this image. No major defects are visible on the front, other than some slight signs of wear or handling consistent with old use.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The front of the sleeve and the cover of the box show slight signs of use, with no apparent structural damage.
