File consists of postbills (commonly called as xiqiao 戲橋 in Chinese) of Cantonese opera published by Danzhutang, which was one of the major printers in the province of Gungdong, China. Rather than present a performance like a playbill, these postbills were printed to summarize a particular play with a plot synopsis. More than 90 Canatonese opera plays are represented in these postbills.
