Description: 1933 F.M.S. Survey Map of Singapore and Malaya (Malaysia) WE SELL ONLY ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAPS - NOT REPRODUCTIONS Title: Malaya 1933. Description: A very rare 1933 map of Malaya, modern day Malaysia, issued by the surveyor general of the Federated Malay States. The map covers the Malay peninsula from the Thai / Siamese border to Singapore. This is a topographical map drawn to illustrate the region's developing road system. Roads, both extant and under construction, are highlighted in red. The map also details railway lines, cart tracks, light railways, and state boundaries. Hotels, rest houses, and golf courses are also identified. A table in the lower left identifies distances from Kuala Lumpur, wireless stations, and meteorological stations. This map is quite rare. We have been able to identify only one other example in the collections of the National Library Board of Singapore. Size: Printed area measures 34 inches high by 5 inches wide. Condition: Good. Some worm holing evident in photo. Some discoloration in upper left quadrant where originally attached to binder. Discoloration and wear on original fold lines. Attached to original binder. Front cover detached but present. Shipping: Shipping rates are not negotiable. Items are shipped within three business days of receiving payment. We are happy to consolidate shipping where possible.

Box and cannot ship FedEx we will ship USPS Priority and, while we ship promptly, recent postal personnel cutbacks mean that delivery may take time. Signature Required. 3. FedEx International or DHL International EXPRESS (45 USD). 4. We can use your FedEx Account. Customs: International buyers are responsible for paying duty and taxes on delivery. DHL or FedEx will contact the buyer by telephone to arrange tax payment if it is levied. Duty varies by country and we cannot predict the amount you will be charged. Some countries are duty free, others are not. Typically, a customs duty and/or VAT tax will be assessed on all parcels to continental Europe. Sometimes duty or tax is due in China, but is seems very random. Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Taiwan have never assessed duty on a map we shipped. Maps shipped to the UK should be duty free as educational materials, but from time to time duty of 5% is assessed incorrectly by the UK customs agents. Insurance: All shipments are insured privately against loss and damage. All of our shipments require a signature for insurance purposes.
