Hong Kong Collectors Society - Exhibition this week

Submitted by David on Mon, 02/20/2017 - 15:04

I enjoyed their previous exhibition back in 2014, so I'm looking forward to this year's event:

Venue: Hall Nos. 4 & 5 at the Central Library, Causeway Bay.  

Hours: The Exhibition will be open to the public from 5 pm to 8 pm on 22 February, and daily from 9:30 am to 8 pm on 23-27 February.  It will close at 6 pm on 28 February. 

I called in this afternoon, and there's lots to see. As well as interesting selections of old photos and postcards, I noted historic fans, and memorabilia of all sorts including:

  • Banks
  • Construction (those great old adverts for new buildings, where all the surrounding buildings are low-rise, trees and parks are nearby, and yachts sail past on blue seas...)
  • Airlines & Kai Tak
  • Jewellery & Goldsmiths
  • Green Spot
  • Bottls, bags, and other food packaging
  • QE2's coronation
