Hello, 

First of all, congratulations on an amazing site.  Very interesting.

And, I have a query.  I'm researching a book called Earth Then and Now for a London book publisher, and I'm currently looking for old photographs of Hong Kong Island from Kowloon.  I found one by chance on your side taken in 1979, but Ideally I'd like to see some earlier ones.  I would be very grateful for any advice regarding archives/collections I can get in touch with.

Many thanks and best,

Emma O'Neill

Here are a couple of older views from the 1920s and 1950s.

And some other sources listed here.
