Malaya 1957 Merdeka (Independence) PRIVATE First Day Cover with the portrait of the first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman. Overall toning is normal for a first day cover that was issued around 63 years ago ! Though the cancellation date is slightly illegible, when a zoom is done, AUG 57 can be made out (see second photo). And because the date of issue was 31 Aug 1957, though the day is not legible, it could not be any earlier ! What you see is what you get. Successful bidde...r will pay £5 for postage, handling and registration. I will start the auction at the lowest possible bid of £0.01. All the best. Bid now to get a piece of memorable history !
