These important paintings, calligraphy, ceramics and Four Treasures of the Study (Wenfang Sibao) provided by the grandson of Mr. Lee, whose grandfather was a former employee of Shanghai Yuanli Pawnshop.

These Pawn Tickets were signed by Yuesheng Du's wife, Ms. Yueying Shen. It is very likely that during that time, Yueying Shen developed an affair and was later found out by her husband Yuesheng Du.
