The Singapore Philatelic Museum is once again preparing their annual exhibition dedicated to the Chinese Zodiac, this time featuring… dragons! These magical creatures have inspired legends and stories all around the world – from Saint George and the dragon, to Watatsumi, Tianlong or even… Dragon Ball!
No matter the dragon you know best, the Singapore Philatelic Museum would like you to share it with their visitors! So please send your dragon postcards to:
Singapore Philatelic Museum
23B Coleman Street
Singapore 179807
Mishelle Lim, who works at the museum, tells us that many visitors, young and old stop to admire and read the postcards sent by the postcrossers.
The exhibitions are usually very interactive, and especially attractive to the younger visitors of the museum – so please send a message to the little ones! You can tell them about your favourite dragon, or just say hi! Bonus points if you can find stamps with dragons as well!
As usual, all cards received before the end of the year will receive a reply from the museum – so don’t forget to include your address.
PS – Curious about what these exhibitions look like? Take a look at the previous editions!

Dragons; my favourite animal! Postcrossers often say to me that dragon postcards are hard to find, however I am sure that the museum will still get plenty. Remember, if you have any dragon postcards left after this, you know who to contact!

This sounds wonderful! can we send handmade cards?
It is challenging, I have to start my search soon unless we can send handmade cards like anushankarn ask.
I made a special trip out and found a book of tibetian rug postcards (one of which had a dragon on it). I'm very excited to contribute!

I visited the Singapore Philatelic Museum last week during my trip to Singapore and saw all of the dragon postcards! There is an exhibit on Chinese New Year and dragons on the upper level of the museum, featuring the history of dragons as well as dragon stamps from all over the world. All of the postcards people have sent are in a binder so visitors can look through them! It was great to see so many Postcrossing cards in one place.
Did anyone got a card back? I haven't recived any yet :-(
