Beyond Canada

Overseas Destinations

The Albertype Co. issued a number of postcards showing Canadian scenes starting about 1898 and running until early in the 20th Century.

Overseas destinations in those early years were less common than locally mailed postcards, and thus become more of a challenge to collect.
