Our recent post about retired American professor Jean-Claude Latombe's shots of 1972 Singapore may have had many going all reminiscent and teary-eyed.

Thanks to a Jed Mitter, we can again experience those same emotions. Not once, but many times over.

Mitter published, on his Facebook page, a note titled "Links to Old Singapore Photographs".

The links in the note lead to Flickr albums containing photos of pre- and post-independent Singapore. The photos generally depict scenes from the 60s to the 80s, though some date as far back as 1951.

Mitter's online profile lists him as an independent import and export professional who now lives in Taiwan, having grown up in Singapore in the 60s and 70s and attended schools such as ACS Primary and Anderson Secondary.

Many of the linked albums appear to be owned by foreign visitors who captured fond memories of their first trips to the little red dot.

We present a brief sampling of these images below, but do visit the album links on Mitter's original post for more.

Sit back, relax, and let the memories roll by:
