The Roslyn, Winnipeg.

Unused card on a Cyko back. No photographer identified. Could be Lyall or Meyers but I would guess Meyers. The Roslyn is a landmark at the corner of Osborne Street and River Avenue in Winnipeg, just across the river from the Manitoba Legislature.

Strathcona Block, Winnipeg, Man.

Card by the Canadian View Card Co. of Toronto. Unused, 1/3 2/3 divided back with stamp box stating that Canada, U.S. or Mexico are one cent (don't usually see Mexico mentioned). The Strathcona Block was apartments and was also (and later on, exclusively) known as the Fort Garry Court, a name that sometimes appears on postcards wtih this identical image. The building burned down in the 1970s with considerable loss of life.
