Description

Antique 1927 black-and-white photographic postcards featuring two scenic locations in Vancouver, British Columbia. The first postcard depicts "Sunset, English Bay, Vancouver, B.C.," capturing a dramatic sunset over calm waters with reflections beneath a cloud-filled sky. The second features "Capilano Canyon," showcasing a rugged rocky gorge surrounded by towering cliffs and evergreen trees.

Both postcards feature photographs by renowned Canadian photographer Leonard Frank, with a 1927 copyright date printed on the reverse. Published by Importex Company of Vancouver, B.C., and printed in Germany. These original vintage postcards offer a beautiful glimpse into British Columbia's natural landscapes during the early 20th century, making them appealing collectibles for Canadian history, photography, and postcard enthusiasts.
