Guttridge postcard collection, 1900-1932

This collection comprises more than two hundred postcards collected by Dr. Denis C. Guttridge. It contains a wide range of images of places, people, events, and activities pertaining to Southeast Asia, and particularly to the former French colonies of Indochina (Annam, Cochin China, Tonkin, and Cambodia). Other countries are also included, such as Malaysia, Singapore, and Sri Lanka. The collection features postcards from a multitude of publishers, based in cities throughout France and Indochina. Some of these postcards have been used for correspondence, almost universally in French, at times with insights into the subject depicted on the postcards as well as into the lives of the colonists. Unfortunately, due to the bad quality of the paper, many postcards have lost their versos. Only the versos including messages have been preserved
