Greeting Cards by Moses Brooks

     I bought this collection of greeting cards back in the early 1990's and never used them as they are a great record of Prince Edward Island Architecture.  Mr. Brooks has dated these illustrations between 1985-1987.  A few of these properties have since disappeared.
     For more information about Mr. Books see his website at: http://www.navnet.net/paper/  As well, below is the back of one of the cards which gives more information about the illustrator.
