Finding "Treasure" - What happens next?

For those of you who emailed me with your best wishes, thank you so much! Just doing my part to help chronicle part of Singapore's sporting history... #lestweforget

Some of you have also asked - "What do you usually do when you find a piece of  sports memorabilia?"

I'm not a trained curator and neither have I gone through a course on artefact research and preservation but here is what I usually do, when I find "treasure", which I like to call these pieces of Singapore's sporting history...

Step 1: Give the artefact a once through, a 360 degree visual check. Is it carrying fleas? (Important question!)

Looks pristine and well kept!

Step 2: Look for anything that may give an indication of which era it is from. In this case, the jacket patch clearly states that it is from the 9th SEA Games in 1977.

Note any variations (you might need to see a few examples of jacket patches before you learn to recognise any variation)

Step 3: Look for anything that may tell you the identity of the wearer/owner... Not an easy task! Failing which, look for the Tailor's mark...

In this case "211" may be the key 

to the identity of the owner. 

Check if Tailor still exists!

Update: SAINT the Gents Tailor, has been found at Katong Shopping Centre! Will be heading there tomorrow, to try and trace the identity of the owner of this jacket.
