Summary

Description Photograph of Chang Apana and Warner Oland during the filming of The Black Camel in Honolulu. Snipe attached to reverse of photo reads as follows:
FICTION AND FACT
Earl Derr Biggers, the novelist, conceived the character of Charlie Chan, the Chinese detective, from a note casually noticed in a Honolulu newspaper to the effect that Chang Apana, a Chinese detective on the local force had arrested a Chinaman for the illegal possession of narcotics. The Fox company, making the latest novel of this series, “The Black Camel”, in the original locations in Hawaii, invited Apana to visit the company and he is here shown (left) with Warner Oland, the Chan of the screen.
Date publication; photo dates to early May 1931
Apana visited the set in May 1931 per Yunte Huang's Charlie Chan (2010), pp. 205–208, and this photograph was taken on the last day of shooting. Apana received an inscribed copy of this photograph: "To my dear friend, Charlie Chang, 'The bravest of all,' with best of luck from the new 'Charlie Chan,' Warner Oland."
