Canada Covers & Postcards

British Columbia - Canadian Artist Edward Goodall (1909-1982) Postcard Collection. Once in a lifetime accumulation of 120 postcards featuring the art of Edward Goodall in a Uni-Safe padded postcard album (and loose). This collection is the combined lifetime efforts of two Victoria BC based postcard collectors. Goodall’s scenes feature largely buildings, homes and ships from Victoria and area, but also some Vancouver and parts of Vancouver Island. Goodall opened a studio located at his house in Oak Bay (Victoria) in 1945 and worked on his pencil sketch images which he then had printed to fill orders for postcards sales. In the late 1950’s he changed his medium, switching to watercolor images rather than pencil sketches. There are 20 of his watercolor print postcards and 100 of the pencil drawn sketch printed postcards in this lot. Expect some mild duplication, but a otherwise a very diverse showing of the artists work. Estimate
