  • Sarawak ladies

    This is an unused card with faint address lines on the reverse, but no caption.  It would date from roughly the 1970s or maybe early 1980s, and we know from the source that the photo was taken in Sarawak, East Malaysia.  It is precisely what Malaysians might call a “homely” scene.  Grade: 1
