上海鳞爪（民国掌故）
Yu Muxia
In modern Shanghai, cosmopolitanism and locality coexist, modernity and tradition coexist, and advancedness and backwardness coexist. "Shanghai Scale Claws" is a collection of notes about Shanghai society and culture written by Yu Muxia, a modern patriotic newspaperman. It is compiled into more than 300 articles, each of which can be as short as a hundred words or as long as seven or eight hundred words. The content is all-encompassing, recording in detail the food, clothing, housing and transportation of fashionable men and women, the daily necessities of ordinary people, the various trades in the world, and the bizarre gossip. It especially introduces the concession matters in detail. It can be called a handbook of modern Shanghai life.
