Two years ago I tried to determine when Moody had to quit the field. The below shown invoice dated Aug 31, 1951 for storing a Ford for one month seems to confirm that at least parts of his business survived that what was later called the Shanghai Campaign in 1949.
The year the invoice was made out was the same year when Mao started so-called Anti Campaigns. Wikipedia says: "Up to 15,000 trained propagandists were working in Shanghai by late 1951. By February 1952, parades of anti-Capitalist activists went door-to-door to visit business leaders..."
A handwritten receipt, titled with "...FED, Inc., U.S.A." but presented in China in 1951 looks strange, doesn't it?
