Thanks to David McMillan for providing the postcards from Chapleau then. David died earlier in 2012.

Ian Macdonald noted about the postcards

 "It points out the enormous value of post cards in providing a historic profile of places. You'll notice in Vince Crichton's website at http://www.chapleau.com/  (click on Chapleau history) that much of early Chapleau was recorded with postcards. This, of course, is because it took a while for camera ownership to become commonplace and not everyone owned one. The technical photographic quality of post cards also tends to be quite high as evidenced by David's aerial images of Chapleau."
