(x) Singapore
1900s-1920s, a fascinating diplomatic correspondence in ancient Japanese script over some 20 letters each with their franked cover, addressed from Singapore to Japan, some with maps of islands off Singapore. The period and the fact that we cannot translate these texts lead us to believe the letters contained sensitive information, possible written in code.
