WP1986 WPG - WINTER SCENE (ON THE ASSINIBOINE)

WP1986 WPG - WINTER SCENE (ON THE ASSINIBOINE)
POSTCARD

Date: Not evident. Unposted.

Publisher / Photographer: Lyall Commercial, Winnipeg

Notation: For some reason, I was drawn to this cluster of women down on the Assiniboine River. Great outfits, and fun to see the evident popularity of hand warmers / mufflers (properly known as "muffs"). At first I thought they were skating, but they are without skates - bystanders apparently.

I also really like this card because the photographer Maurice Lyall chose to sign this one. (The signature was printed as part of the image - not individually signed.)

I think I have this one, or one like it, with the signature. With these ones, you feel as though you could walk, or glide, into the scene.
