New. The author, Cheah Jin Seng while pursuing a distinguished medical career, has also found time to collect stamps and post cards to the extent that he has become one of the foremost authorities in these fields in Singapore and Malaysia.

The 288 pages are divided into sections on The Federated Malay States of Selangor, Negri Sembilan, Pahang and Perak, The Unfederated States of Johore, Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan and Trengganu and the Straits Settlements of Malacca and Penang.
