Reuters Offices, 1937 Shanghai

A letterhead for the Reuters news agency from 1937 Shanghai – headquartered on “Newspaper Row” aka Avenue Edward VII (The “Avenue Eddy” and now Yanan Road East). Especially handy as the traffic offices for cablegrams out of and into Shanghai were at 34 Avenue Edward VII too. However, some tensions may have been apparent as Japan’s Domei news agency was in the same building as was the German Trans-Ocean News Service.
