| Description |
English: Obsolete Chinese telegraph codes from
0001 to 0200. Each cell of the table shows a four-digit numerical code written in Chinese, and a Chinese character corresponding to the code. This is part of Septime Auguste Viguier’s New Book for the Telegraph (電報新書) published in Shanghai in 1872. Viguier developed this code succeeding Hans Carl Frederik Christian Schjellerup’s earlier work. See en:Chinese telegraph code. |

English: The source web page is marked as “© Det Kongelige Bibliotek,” i.e., this is the copyrighted work of the Royal Library of Denmark. However, it is obvious that the statement does apply to the web page itself but not to the images embedded in the web page, which was obtained through scanning the New Book for the Telegraph. Photocopying of a copyright-expired original does not generate a new copyright, neither does scanning of it.
