It is time to celebrate after a year's of hardwork


Yes, it is countdown time to 2010 and it it the time to celebrate a year's of hardwork you had in the creation of Maximum Cards. Well NOT too bad, quite many subjects of the Singapore Stamps issued in 2009 could be made into Maximum Cards. Really, it was fun in the hunting for relevant postcards to match the stamps for MCs, full of excitement and enjoyment. Hopefully, it will be another fruitful year for 2010. Happy New Year to All.

2009 Malaysia MCs on "China Maximaphily" Journal issue No.4/2009

2009 is coming to an end, Yes, it is a fruitful year for me in terms of realisation of MCs, quite many stamps could be used on MCs. I have compiled the MCs and published them in the "China Maximaphiliy" Journal Vol.4/2009 which was just released in Nanjing, China. The joy of Maximaphily is able to share the beauty of the MCs with others. Yes, looking forward to 2010 to realise more MCs.

Again , Singpost came out with Singapore Skylines postage stamps !


Singapore Skylines had been a frequent theme appearing on Singapore commemorative stamps. The commemorative stamps for the APEC convention held in Singapore, again, adopted Singapore Skylines as a theme on the postage stamps. Yes, Singapore Skylines change as time, I am sure the 2009 Skylines is different to the skylines of the years before. Hence, Singapore Skylines can continue to appear on Singapore stamps as the Skylines change with time. Let's speculate the theme will appear again on stamps in the future.

Merlion Sentosa 3



The Sentosa Merlion, which is half lion and half fish, is about 37 meters high. You can take the lift to the top floor and enjoy a panoramic view of Singapore and other nearby islands. The scales on the Sentosa Merlion are also known to glow with different colors at night.

Place of Cancel : Harbour City Post Office
The Harbour city Post Office denoted by No 23 on the cancellation is deemed to be the nearest post office located nearest to the Merlion, as there is no post office situated on shore of the Sentosa Island.

Sentosa Island Merlion


There are significant differences between the City Merlion and the Sentosa Island Merlion. Do you agree that the Sentosa Island Merlion has a fierce looking face ?
圣淘沙鱼尾狮与市区内的那一座鱼尾狮有着明显的不同. 最显著的或许是圣淘沙鱼尾狮有个凶煞的样子吧.

Flying in Pairs 双宿双飞

这是一枚香港国泰航空班机上向空服员讨到的明信片 。。。 片上的鸟固然与票上的鸟不同类 。。。然而主题却贴切 - 双宿双飞,因此毅然制作了极限片。
This postcard was acquired through the air hostess on board the Cathay Pacific to Hong Kong. I found the birds flying in pairs on the postcard are quite matching to the theme of the birds flying on pairs on the stamp, although the birds may NOT be of the same species .. I still feel that theme is matching, hence, I realise the above MC.
