Over Singapore 50 years ago : an aerial view in the 1950s

Information About

This book contains aerial photographs of old Singapore taken during the 1950s from altitudes in the range of 2,500-23,000 feet. The photographs have been specially combined to form large, composite views which are similar to photographs taken today from satellites. The result is a fascinating and detailed portrait of Singapore and its major outlying areas as they once were.
