World Banknotes
Singapore, hand painted section of an essay for 5 Ringgit, c.1966, featuring a view of Singapore International Airport. This section fits perfectly onto the reverse of an essay found on page 387 of Banknotes of British Malaya 2nd edition, and was clearly intended as an alternative image for that design, as it happens, neither of the two images was chosen for the note actually issued, stuck on a clear plastic sheet, to make it possible to overlay it onto the full design
TBB unlisted, Pick unlisted, see page 387 of Banknotes of British Malaya for design £300-£400
