This 1908 postcard offers a charming glimpse into the leisurely life of Montreal's Parc Lafontaine. The image captures a serene fountain surrounded by lush greenery, with a picnic table and a person enjoying the tranquil setting. The postcard's divided back design allows for both a scenic view and a personal message, reflecting the social customs of the early 20th century. The postmark indicates it was posted in 1908, adding historical value to this piece of ephemera. Collectors of vintage postcards, Canadian memorabilia, and urban landscapes will find this item particularly appealing.

For postcards priced over $20 (Buy It Now): I ship these first-class in a sturdy cardboard mailer, with the postcard protected in a hard plastic top loader.
For postcards under $20 and auction wins: These are shipped using eBay’s standard envelope service (delivered by USPS), packed in a semi-rigid mailer. If you prefer upgraded protection with first-class shipping, please message me before completing your payment.
Important note about eBay standard envelope shipping: This option doesn’t get scanned like regular packages, so tracking can sometimes be inaccurate. It may show as “delivered” once it reaches your local post office—even if it hasn't arrived at your door yet. Please be patient, and don’t hesitate to contact me if you’re concerned about delivery.
