Kennedy Street - Winnipeg

Sender Stella [Elewaut] writes: "Winnipeg, December 14, 1905 My dear cousin, Here is a view card of Winnipeg that I'm sending to add to your collection. I await your news. Lots of kisses from your loving cousin, Stella. All the best to your family." It is difficult to identify where on Kennedy this is.

Brookside Cemetery - Winnipeg

Card 12 in the De Nobele series is Brookside Cemetery. This one was mailed on March 26 (year missing but 1906 would be most likely) to Miss D. Worfolk, 5 Browning Road, Enfield, Middx., Englad, with the message: "Dear Do, I am sending you another with this one to make up for some you have not had." Perhaps "Do" was a collector.

Stacking at Myrtle (Man.)

Unused De Nobele card, no. 44, showing the stacking of hay at Myrtle, Manitoba. Again the typography -- specifically the placement of the parentheses and the use of a colon where we would use a period -- gives away the fact that these cards were manufactured in Belgium.
