American Falls, Illuminated, view from Canada
The only good thing to say about this card is that it is old. Unused Harris Litho (Toronto)card 43, with two massive lipstick prints on the reverse. If someone loved the card as much as that, they should have kept it. Grade: 5

Code: 20102179
Price: $1.00
Niagara Falls, Prospect Point

Code: 20102180

Downtown Vancouver
Mailed in 2010 with three stamps, three small stickers on the reverse, and a large postal ink smudge on the front that you can see on the scan in the sky. The card shows BC Place and GM Place and probably more, but the stamps cover that information up. Grade: 4

Code: 20102181
Price: $1.00
Lake Louise and Chateau Lake Louise
Mailed in 1930 with stamp and full postmark; some postmark transfer on the front. Oddly, though it was permitted, no message. Grade: 3

Code: 20102182
Price: $8.00
Woman
In 1909, this card went from Toronto to Mrs. Fullerton in Shanghai. The two stamps are there, and two postmarks–one of Toronto (9 November) and one of Shanghai (7 December) and so that is exactly how long the card was in transit. Your little piece of postcard history. Grade: 2

Code: 20102183
Price: $16.00
Banff Springs Hotel and Sulphur Mountain
Mailed in 1930 with a 2-cent stamp and full Banff postmark. No message, but this C.P.R. card is in fine, evocative condition. Grade: 2

Code: 20102184
Price: $15.00

Code: 20102185
Price: $12.00
Batoche National Historic Site, Phillips’ grave
You might need Google to know who Gunner Phillips was, or, I suppose if you’re Canadian, you don’t, which is exactly as it should be. Now, to the card: unused, with an odd strip of brown (aged?) running down the reverse middle. Grade: 4

Code: 20102186
Price: $1.00
Montreal, McGill University Stadium
This old card has some ink on the top front, and had been mailed in 1934 in Montreal. The postmark and message are there; the stamp is long gone. Grade: 5

Code: 20102187
Price: $2.00
Quebec, Montcalm’s House
In the 1700’s, Montcalm was a French soldier best known as the commander of the forces in North America during the Seven Years’ War. Wikipedia tells us this, and (sorry) we’re not sure we learned that much from it. The card itself is unused but extremely heavily handled over the years. Grade: 5

Code: 20102188
Price: $1.00

The unused Plastichrome card P73744 most likely dates from 1967 or 1968, but has aged more than that on the reverse. Good condition otherwise. Grade: 3

Unused “local” card 661208. Grade: 3

Code: 20102211

Code: 20102212
Price: $0.50
Ste-Anne-de-Beaupre, Main Street
Mailed in 1947, this card is heavily creased and the stamp is abraded but the postmark is readable and we’re guessing it’s not a card you’ll find every day. Grade: 4

Code: 20102213
Price: $4.00
Vancouver, Stanley Park
Unused card No. 14 in Union Oil Company of Canada’s Color Photographic Scenes of Vancouver, B.C. Copyrighted and therefore dated 1940. Grade: 2

Vineland, Tivoli Miniature World, St. Peter’s
This unused “local” card 56353-D can be misleading if you don’t pay close attention. Of course if you know the history of Tivoli Miniature World, once near Niagara Falls and which closed in the late 1990s, you won’t need to worry. Grade: 2
