The Christ Church Melaka


I didn't make a trip to Melaka to realize this Christ Church Melaka maxicard on the first day of issue; it was sent by post to Melaka later. This maxicard was returned "safely" in the self-addressed envelope provided, with "bonus" - 2 overlapping postmarks!

The Christ Church Melaka was again depicted in the background of one of the stamps of "World Heritage sites" issue in 2009. I didn't want my maxicards to suffer the same fate this time, so I made a trip to Melaka for "slightly better" postmarks with my unstable hand.....
