Code: 20308551
Price: $4.00
Chinese Junk
Just not here any more. We miss them. Unused, aging card whose caption refers to “the background of Modern Buildings being the tourist centre in Kowloon.” That’s partly true (on the right) but the majority of the background is Hong Kong Island. Grade: 2

Code: 20308559
Price: $4.00

Code: 20308585
Price: $3.00
Ngong Ping Buddha and Wanchai Convention Centre, 3D card in frame
One unused card in a cardboard frame with a push-out stand on the back so it can sit on your desk like a framed photo. Scanning 3D cards clearly isn’t really possible, and here you can see elements of both photos through the lenticular printing.

Code: 20308588
Price: $8.00

Wishing Tree in Tai Po
You will find older, bigger, or stranger cards than this 5-1/8″ x 7″ example, but you will never find one more colourful. Mailed in 2012 with “Lighthouse” stamp and postmark. The tree, by the way, is now dead — a victim of its own success. Grade: 1

This is Lee Lai Shan (“San San”), a windsurfer until now one of three Olympic medal winners from Hong Kong and the only one to achieve gold. Unaccountably, the card chose not to identify her.

Kai Tak Airport, with ticket cover
Unused card issued by the MTR Corporation (Hong Kong’s mass transit railway) some time before 1998, which is when Kai Tak Airport closed. The area on the front is the sleeve for a souvenir ticket, which is not there now. Only because of that, Grade: 5

Code: 20308613

Price: $2.00
