Bridge
This unattributed real-photo vintage postcard 11910 has no caption other than “Singapore” but we believe it to be of Anderson Bridge shortly after the 1910 opening. Apart from normal aging, card is unused and in terrific condition. Grade: 1

Commercial Square, soldiers returning from reception
Extraordinary piece of WWI history. Max Hilckes postcard showing return of soldiers at Johnson Pier was never mailed and is undamaged. Nicely aged reverse. Beautiful, and really this postcard is a prize catch for Singapore Straits Settlements collectors. Grade: 1

Code: 20323057
Price: $68.00
South Bridge Road
Turn of the century urban life. Barely visible white caption on bottom front identifies this scene. Card has faded some, and was in an album (indented four corners), and is aged on reverse. A lovely photo overall. Grade: 2

Code: 20323058
Price: $22.00
South Bridge Road
Superb and very old Wilson & Co. card, unused, and if it wasn’t so old you could think it was new. Grade: 1

Code: 20323060
Price: $29.00
Aerial river view
Very nice, clear B&W real photo dating from earlier 20th cent. It’s marred only by minor abrasion and that the front corners had been pasted in an album. When the card came out, so did three corner surfaces. Reverse is slightly smudged. Grade: 4

Code: 20323062
Price: $14.00
Raffles Place
Two of these are available. Both are unused and in equivalent condition but one is more orange overall than the other. Both were in albums so there are insignificant indentations diagonally across corners. Reverse of the card that has the more orange color has aged somewhat more. Grades: 2

Code: 20323063
Price: $16.00
General views
Unused B&W card with unattributed index number 433983 and minor diagonal album indents across the corners. Reverse is aged but OK. Grade: 3

Reservoir
What a wonderful card this is for whomever spots it first. B&W, undamaged front; the charm is on the reverse. Mailed from Singapore to a Japanese Marquis in Tokyo, the stamp is intact and so are multiple Singapore and Japanese postmarks from 1909. Message is in Japanese. Could the buyer e-mail us back and tell us what this said? Grade: 1

Code: 20323068
Price: $28.00
Tanjong Katon (sic)
Possibly the nicest of the many T. Katong (yes, there is a “g”) cards. Unused, B&W, normally aged on reverse but unmarked and very good to look at. Grade: 1

Code: 20323069
Price: $16.00

Code: 20323071

Tanjong Katong
Card is unused, heavily aged, and has album indentations. It’s also a bit dark. If you can ignore all that, the scene is classic tropical island. Grade: 3

Code: 20323072
Price: $7.00
Malay boys
Fading B&W card, unused. It has a pale white caption on bottom front, and a few Japanese characters pencilled on reverse. Corners have album indentations but these do not compromise the real photo. Grade: 3

Entrance of Singapore Garden
The caption writers meant the Singapore Botanical Garden. This unused card also had Russian or Eastern European customers in mind as the reverse is partly in Cyrillic. Front has minor edge abrasions. Reverse is aged but otherwise undamaged. Grade: 3

Code: 20323079
Price: $9.00
Botanical Gardens

Code: 20323081
Price: $9.00
Pasir Panjang
Quite an atmospheric real-photo unused and unattributed B&W card 431743 of Pasir Panjang (“long sand” in Malay language). Date unknown, card is unmarked, and in normally aged condition front and back. Grade: 2

Code: 20323082

Price: $13.00
Sunset
Old B&W unused card, though we take the caption’s word that this is sunset and not sunrise. Card has visible corner album indentations. These don’t really compromise the photo, but reverse shows these album marks. Grade: 3

Code: 20323084
Price: $8.00
Clifford Pier & Inside Break Water
Never mailed B&W card. Real photo. Front has little age spots on surrounding white border. Reverse has pencilled notations in English and probably Japanese, with one indicating “1942-43” and a small rubber stamp indicating 1936. Small ink stain and other pencil marks on reverse. Grade: 4

Code: 20323087
Price: $34.00
View from sea
Old, never-mailed B&W card whose only real flaw is that a strip of the photo on lower right front corner has been removed, probably because card was taped. Grade: 5

Unused 1950s or 60s Malayan Color Views S-260 postcard, beginning to age on reverse but otherwise undamaged. Grade: 1

(Likely) Thaipusam procession
We say “likely” Thaipusam procession because there is no caption, but we know it’s Singapore from merchant’s sign in background and we have seen real processions in the past. So. This old card was probably B&W fading to sepia, was never mailed, and is in great condition. Grade: 1

Code: 20323090
Price: $16.00

Wonderful old B&W card, unused, unmarked, undamaged. Real photo. Barely distinct caption in white along bottom front. Grade: 1
