1941年（民國30年）正值中國艱苦對日抗戰中期，是時針珠港事變尚未發生，美國尚在孤立主義籠罩之下，對亞洲戰爭抱持觀望態度，但由於日軍太平洋戰略之下侵略腳步已踏向歐美在亞洲的殖民勢力，引起西方世界的關注，而中國自強不屈的抗戰精神也傳播世界各處，因此當年6月份的LIFE雜誌對中國抗戰情形做了詳細的報導，尤其是其中對蔣夫人一篇長達3頁的專題報導，並以蔣夫人的半身照片做為封面，可說是當時非常特別的待遇。

While China was struggling in the middle of the War of Resistance Against Japan in 1941, before the attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States was still shrouded in isolationism and took measures to avoid political and military conflicts across the oceans, including wars in Asia. However, the Japanese aggression under its Pacific strategy had gradually been threatening European and American colonial interests in Asia, which caused the concerns of the Western powers, while China's indomitable spirit of self-reliance in the resistance war had spread throughout the world. Therefore, LIFE magazine in the June of that year made a detailed report about China's struggle and particularly, gave a three-page special report on Madame Chiang and featured her half-length image over the front cover of the issue, which could be said was a very special treatment.
The Cultural Division of Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in San Francisco delivered on November 25, 1989, this issue of the magazine. Because we didn't see any relevant documents attached, we don't know why they transferred this item, but it is worthy of collection.
