Art of Seal - Engraving 胡少献的篆刻艺术
An early migrant from China to Singapore, W.S. Hoong was well versed in the art of seal
engraving. As a testament to his art, three of his seals can be found printed on the
Singapore currency. Humble and reclusive, Hoong belongs to the old school of artists,
who are passionate about their art but modest about the limelight. This book is a
posthumous tribute to the artist, compiled by Lianhe Zaobao journalists. Comprising
some of the most memorable works from Hoong's massive collection, many of these
seals were only rediscovered after his death in 2005.

Reminiscences of the Straits Settlements through Postcards
The images in this compilation were featured in the exhibition, Reminiscences of the Straits
Settlements through Postcards, a first-ever collaboration between the National Archives of
Malaysia and the National Archives of Singapore. More than 100 postcards take the reader
back to life in Penang, Singapore and Malacca at the turn of the late 19th and the early
20th centuries. They document the numerous similarities in the political entity known as
the Straits Settlement but better known today as independent Singapore and part pf the
nation of Malaysia. Supporting archival records include maps, building plans and documents.
These images are a fascinating record of a shared vanished lifestyle and a good reminder
of the close historical links between the two nations.
