Royal Victoria Hospital Barrie c1909
Toronto. Old Photo Collectors often are postcard collectors too. Many postcards use photography as a tool to capture events, people, buildings, etc. in colour or in monotone to be hand coloured.
At left is the RVH on Ross Street in Barrie built in 1903 and decades later closed and moved further north in the city to new facilities in 1997.
Some of our members also joined postcard clubs such as the Toronto Postcard Club where we occasionally took a table to promote the PHSC and photo collecting.
While we may not offer postcards, our 2025 events do offer lots of nifty items to complement any photography collection. This month we will host the famous Fall Fair on the 19th of October. Details have been pinned to this site and are also in the PHSC News newsletter for September (issue 25-9).
