Notes: "This is an exhibition of more than hundred postcard views of Malacca between 1900-1950 seen through the eyes of colonial travellers. Organized along four broad topographical themes: Sea, Life of Town, Country-Side and Town Center-most, if not all are sights, places and practices that have since changed or have disappeared altogether."
