First edition, first printing, of this ephemeral publication reviving Singapore's tourist appeal in the immediate aftermath of World War II. Visitors can enjoy picnics, amusement parks, theatres, sports, and a selection of restaurants. WorldCat records a single copy at Leiden. The introduction notes that, from 1942-5, "the lacol [sic] population suffered immensely under the despotic rule which marks the darkest age in the history of Singapore" (p. 4). The same page announces plans for the formation of a Malayan Union, with Singapore remaining "a separate colony until such time as its union with the mainland is desirable". Square octavo, pp. 18. Folding map; advertisements in text. Original wrappers, gatherings wire-stitched and glued into wrappers as issued, covers lettered in black with calendar on rear wrapper. Lightly creased throughout, small marks at head of front cover, contents clean. A very good copy of this delicate publication.
