Small but interesting balance of a postcard collection. The most fascinating is a bundle of about 20 real photo post cards that appear to be Alberta (a couple are used and cancelled "Strathcona, Alta"). The rest are a mix of family pictures or outdoor scenes with only cursory information that will require more research. The book includes a different topic every few pages, starting with British and French performers, a number of chrome "Traveltime" postcards that feature maps, some US tourist (e.g. Hollywood, Disneyland and National Parks), some postcards, inserts and ad cards for commercial products and ending with a group of elaborate "Bird" themed postcards with added fabric "plumage" and "feathers" that are both gorgeous and must have caused havoc in mechanical cancelling machines. A total of 115 post cards. Estimate =
