PMB073 1958 CHRISTMAS GREETINGS - THE LYALLS

PMB073 1958 CHRISTMAS GREETINGS - THE LYALLS
PHOTOGRAPH
12 X 9.5 cm

Date: Christmas, 1958.
Publisher / Photographer: Lyall Commercial.

Notation: Until recently, I have has no luck in finding a photograph of Maurice Lyall, one of Winnipeg's most prolific pre-WWI postcard publishers. Recently, through ancestry.ca, I connected with Jessie Greenwood, Maurice's great niece. She was very helpful in providing me with information on he and his family. She also generously sent me this original "Do it Yourself" Christmas card - made by Maurice Lyall himself.

Yeah. Pretty exciting. Even receiving the scanned image, I told Jessie it was like Christmas morning for me!
