Armorial Bearings of Canada.

Unused Tuck Oilette, "Canadian Postcard no. 2552." Interesting because it shows no armorial bearing for Alberta, even though Saskatchewan is included (and the two provinces joined Confederation on the same day in 1905, so there never were 8 provinces as is suggested here -- just 7, then 9.)

A rare Warwick Bros. & Rutter card, no. 6356, posted October 3, 1909 at Winnipeg to Miss E. H. L. Dowd, 4 Vergemount Hall, Clouskeagh, Dublin, Ireland (readdressed "at Traverslea, Glenageary"): "Dear Aunt Emma, We were glad to hear you were out in Kingstown -- I am sure you will be better for the change. I have been intending to write to you so I will very soon. Love from all + your affect. niece -- Eva."
