Following the success of the other books in the series, Cantonese Museum returns with its 8th title, documenting all the interesting products that were historically made in Hong Kong, from locally made toys, to the food & beverage brands (Vitasoy, anyone?), to the different types of traditional and western pastries, to the delicious sauces (Lee Kum Kee?)!
Did you know that toy manufacturing was a key industry in Hong Kong? In addition to the paper dolls and tin figurines that were popular with the local kids of the era, Hong Kong also exported many brand name toys.
In addition to toys, Hong Kong was also home to many food brands known today, like 王老吉、許留山、十字牌牛奶、甄沾!
All of this is documented in this comprehensive title, capturing all the things that was once made in Hong Kong!
