    24 styles of leg technques book question

    Hello! Please take a look at the cover of this old book. Scribbled on it is the supposed title "Chinese 24 foot fighting technique". I am trying to figure out its real name (in English & Chinese if possible), and the author name.

    Does anybody recognize the book? Has it ever been published more recently as I believe this was printed in the late 1950s.

    THANKS!
    I have come to the conclusion that I need a hobby of something in English, as I am finding great difficulty in reading Chinese!

    Isn't that the one that was later published as '24 Running Foot Strokes' by Lee Ying Arn?
    You can see his name down there under the main title on the left. Li/Lee is one of the first characters I learnt to recognize.

    You can also see the film from which the stills were taken on Youtube.

    p.s. Carry on with the Chinese - even if you only recognize a few names you are ahead of the non-Chinese field!

    I found this youtube video

    So, basically, this could be the original/Chinese versions of "Secrets of Chinese Leg Manuevers"? I think that was printed in 1962 or so by McLisa.

    I think I have almost all the same books Bruce Had and many more - think its time to create a new style/method/theory/principle. Ah prefer to open a donut shop
