Main Mew of Government Building, Johore Bahru (Malaysia)
This card, mailed in 1986, was used to enter a contest. The front is a little creased and postally battered. The reverse has the stamp but is a mess otherwise. Definitely authentic! Grade: 4

Code: 31600049
Price: $2.50

Federal Government offices, Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia)
Two cards are available. One was mailed in 1991 with Selangor stamp and exceptionally clear Batu Arang postmark, really a very nice example (Grade: 1, $3). The other was mailed in 1990, has a stamp, most of a postmark, orange postal bar coding, and is quite heavily aged (Grade: 3, $2).

Code: 31600053
Price: $3.00
Court House and Confederate Monument, Lake Charles (Louisiana)
Rather nice of its kind, apart from some postmark transfer on the front of the card. Reverse has a full postmark from 1941, and a one-cent stamp. Good card overall. Grade: 2

Code: 31600054
Price: $5.00
White House, North Front (Washington)
This card was published by W.B. Garrison, Inc. The front shows corner creasing and abrasion, and the reverse is unused apart from the beginning of a name someone wrote in ink many years ago, always leading us to wonder–how is it possible to get through half of a name and no further? Anyway, Grade: 4

Code: 31600055
Price: $6.50
New Court House, Chicago
Unused but heavily aged and battered, with tears and stains. Still, it guarantees that the “New Court House” is now, well, “old”. If it’s even still there. Grade: 4

Code: 31600056
Price: $5.50
Government Building, Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia)
Mailed in 1986 with Selangor stamp and full but very faint postmark. Grade: 1

Code: 31600058
Price: $3.00

Malacca, Clock Tower and Government Buildings (Malaysia)
Unused, mid-century A.S.M.K. & Co. of Singapore, card M-254 (13494-B). That “rosy” colour is distinctive not only to Malacca but also to other locations, like Macau, once under Portuguese influence. Grade: 1

Code: 31600061T
Price: $8.00

Price: $3.50
Customs Building, Johore Bahru (Malaysia)
Aging S.W. Singapore card JB 7822 with Johor stamp and unreadable postmark. Note once again that we follow spellings as used on the cards and the stamps, which is why you may often see “Johor” and “Bahru” in multiple variants. Grade: 3

Code: 31600063
Price: $3.00

Houses of Parliament, London
Very severe tape abrasions on reverse of this unused card. Grade: 5

Code: 31600077
Price: $0.50
Washoe County Courthouse, Reno (Nevada)
Divorce was not always as easy as it is now, and Reno was the place to go, and this courthouse was Ground Zero. The caption on reverse elaborates just a little bit. Card was mailed with a 2-cent stamp, probably in 1957 but the postmark is not distinct. Grade: 2
