In addition, there is a long letter from Max Artelt, who was a renowned escape artist; a leaflet celebrating the birthday of Franz Joseph and a small poster with dedication ("We, the former crew of Tsingtau, dedicate this commemorative sheet to our compatriots in East Asia as an expression of heartfelt thanks for their loyal help"). (After Germany and its allies were defeated in Tsingtao, their soldiers were captured and sent to Japan. More than 4,600 combatant prisoners of war (POWs) were interned in temporary camps in cities throughout Japan. In 1915, after it became clear that the war would last longer than originally expected, Japanese military authorities constructed permanent POW camps to make prisoners' living conditions more tolerable. Though strictly controlled by the military authorities, the prisoners were treated as fellow soldiers in accordance with the Hague Convention of 1907. Despite the fact that the POW camps were encircled by barbed wire, prisoners were not kept isolated from the surrounding society. Ultimately eighty-seven prisoners died in captivity) (Image)
