Hello everybody,

I have been trying to hunt down where these pictures originated from. It is possible they were in a more 'recent' English kung fu book but I believe their original origin was from a Chinese printed manual from the 1960s or so?

Any help would be appreciated in finding the book title/author, etc.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure it's this:

Thanks guys!

I am confident at least some of those prints are originally from an older Chinese manual of some kind, possibly one of those Shaolin 72 arts type books. I just cant find it right now.

I had a reprint of the book that I bought as a novelty item when I lived in Taipei. I still have it somewhere, probably in storage now. Unfortunately, I forget the title; I believe it was originally from the early 20th century. The reprint of the original had no English words or descriptions.

They were originally in "72 consummate arts of shaolin temple" but they have been reused in alot of books since
