PSA Journal – Volume 15, June 1949

International Exhibits
Francis Wu One-Man Show


The big news of the month, perhaps, is the arrival in this country of the 50 beautiful prints by Francis Wu, FPSA, FRPS, and Pictorial Division Representative of Hong Kong. This show was sent by Mr. Wu to Frances Robson, of Vina, California, one of his close friends in America. The pictures came unmounted, and Mrs. Robson writs that she kept hr two mounting presses hot, mounting the entire set. They were then displayed in a local department store and created quite a sensation. At this writing the prints are on the way to the Director of PSA International Exhibits and soon will be available. Pictorial Division councils and clubs are now arranging a schedule for exhibitions.

Foreign pictures are not to be compared with American prints until the spectator realizes that condition abroad is not comparable to our usual facilities and supplies here in the U.S.

Everyone should take advantage of an opportunity to see one of these foreign exhibits, and that should not be too difficult as the entire nine are now in circulation and on display in various parts of the country.
