This evocative collection of more than 150 picture postcards offers
a fascinating insight into Japanese society in Singapore in the
late 19th and early 20th centuries. Used as souvenirs and a vehicle
for advertisements and personal correspondence, and even
propaganda, postcards have taken on many roles throughout
Singapore's history, making them unique and valuable sources of
documentation. Based on the Lim Shao Bin Collection of Japanese
historical materials at the National Library Singapore, this
important study illuminates new historical perspectives on the
Japanese community as well as related subjects like tourism, war
and empire in pre-World War II Singapore.
