A W.G. MacFarlane patriotic postcard from the BC series has been added.

I’ve added four pioneer postcards bearing real photos. This card series, potentially by Atkinson Bros., based on text and design, seems to be a precursor to the later postcards which embodied full-card real photo images. These four examples are postally unused, from Halifax, but examples span from the Pacific to the Atlantic, dating to about 1901.

A couple of new cards from the “Greetings from Quebec” early patriotic postcard series have been added, along with what may be proof that this series originated with publisher W.G. MacFarlane.
