-
Bali, Harris Resort
This is primarily an advertising card, more or less fully pre-printed on the reverse so it would be difficult but not impossible to mail as a postcard. The outline of the top half of this foot has been (intentionally) cut, so that part of the card can pop out but not detach. Two of these (unused) cards are available. Grades: 1
-

Jakarta by night, Hotel Indonesia fountain
Unused contemporary card. Side comment: this must be one of the busiest fountains in Asia, the site of endless demonstrations and traffic jams. If you know no other word in the Indonesian language, you may as well learn this one: macet (traffic jam). Grade: 1
-

-
Bali, ceremony
A very special card. In 1939, Angus posted this from Soerabaja (now Surabaya) to Hong Kong after his “most interesting trip round the famous island of Bali.” The card has a Netherlands Indies stamp and full postmark and is attributed on the reverse to Sagami, the photographer in Den Passer (now Denpasar). Worthy of any serious collector of Indonesian postcards of the era. Grade: 1
-

Mailed from Malaysia (not Indonesia!) in 2011, with stamp and fully legible postmark. Grade: 3
-
Central Java, Hindu Temple
