Sarawak, ritual dance with human skulls
Eight unused and one mailed SW Singapore SR7909 cards are available, likely from the 1970s. This ritual is perfectly in keeping with Sarawak and other Borneo traditions but still it can be jarring to see it on a postcard, so we provide the complete caption: “Ritual dance by Dayak girls holding human skulls near a long-house, Sarawak 2nd Division, Sarawak, E. Malaysia”. We want to call these bizarre postcards but they do represent a living theme so we will call them cultural postcards instead. The eight unused cards: Grades: 1, $39. The other card was mailed in 1984 with three different stamps but no readable postmark; corner battering, and creasing, and blue airmail sticker affixed: Grade: 3, $35.
