Appliqués

This one was published by Young Bros. of Toronto.

One of two cards with a silk maple leaf appliqué. On a printed back but no indication of publisher.

I've had this one for a long time but just happened to come across it for the first time in a long while. Note that, although it's a Stedman card (with Stedman being described as "Brantford & Winnipeg"), the framed view is one of the Pugh "1000" series (# 1000/14), evidently cut from a sheet of reductions of those cards as you can see another card's title along the bottom of this image: "C.P.R. Station and Hotel, Winnipeg, Man." (that card, which I have, is no. 23). In fact, you can see how they've made the reductions: they've placed cards side by side and photographed them from above (the lower right corner of the inset card here touches the corners of three other cards at the extreme lower right of the inset). Smith's Stedman book does list a pennant card of Winnipeg in this series, but the image is of Portage & Main, looking west. It looks like a Stedman image rather than another image from this Pugh series. I also have this one in the series, which doesn't seem to be a Pugh card either -- looks like a RPPC from someone else: www.ipernity.com/doc/wintorbos/23124689//in/album/447203
