THE Shanghai Municipal Archives has put on display 50 original archives in both English and Chinese about the history of the Communist Party of China. Some of them are being released to public for the first time.

The exhibit includes a collection of the city government’s reports on how the Site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China was identified in 1951. It is also the first time that a government report is being released for public display.

Several police and court records, some of them in English, show how the former party leaders such as Chen Duxiu and Li Lisan were arrested and sentenced in 1930s.

The exhibit also displays an English report written by the police authority in the former concessions about how four members of the “Red Team,” a spy organization led by the Party, was betrayed and arrested in 1934.

The exhibition also includes the early publications of the Party, including the first Chinese version of the “The Manifesto of the Communist Party” translated by the former president of Fudan University Chen Wangdao, said Zhu Jihua, curator of the archives.

The exhibition, which lasts for a month, is being held on the ground floor of the archive at 9 Zhongshan Road E. It is open to the public free between 9am and 5pm from Monday through Saturday.
