Police (Traffic Branch) Report - "Re Neon Light sign at 180, Nanking Road". Shanghai, August 3, 1939. Source: SMA (SMC), U1-14-3269 (1478). 

Regarding attached application, applicant wishes to erect a continuous neon sign approximately 51' long running 29' on Nanking Road & 22' on Kiangse Road. The S.M.P. traffic control lights on Kiangse Road are placed 18 feet from the corner of No.180 Nanking Road. The lights are at an identical height of the proposed sign and would attract attention of all North bound Traffic on Kiangse Road. It is suggested that the application be not approved in its present form. Should applicant be willing to run the sign the length of the shop on Nanking road alone, there would be no objection from a police traffic point of view.
