This is a set of four film sheets printed with images related to four different Chinese associations in Singapore. The images are crests from the following associations, Zhang Shi Ru Lin Gong Hui (张氏儒林公会), Tiang Lim Association (新加坡九牧世家联谊会, Xin Jia Po Jiu Mu Shi Jia Lian Yi Hui, established in 1939), Khiang Khoon Tian Lion Dance (乾坤殿体育会, Qian Kun Dian Ti Yu Hui) and Xiang Long Tang Dragon and Lion Troupe (祥龙堂龙狮团, Xiang Long Tang Long Shi Tuan) .The film sheets are used as part of the process of crafting Chinese stainless steel metal signs that are displayed by clan associations during the funerals of their deceased members as a form of tribute. Metal signs are also widely used for decorative purposes on hearses or used on backdrops of Seventh Month Festival celebrations. Such signs are also found as part of the altars within Chinese shrines and temples whilst lion dance troupes incorporate the metal signs as part of their drum, suona and gong stands..
