This unique collectible is a Maximart Card featuring a sepia-toned illustration of the Canadian Beaver (Castor canadensis), based on an old lithograph by the artist Kurka. The scene captures the industrious nature of Canada's national animal in its natural habitat, gnawing on timber near a lodge. The artwork is beautifully rendered with fine detail, showcasing the texture of the beaver's fur and the surrounding wilderness.What makes this piece particularly significant is its status as a Maximum Card, bearing a 5-cent blue Canadian beaver stamp that perfectly matches the subject of the card. It features a crisp 'First Day of Issue' cancellation from Ottawa, Ontario, dated April 1, 1954. Published by Tulane in New York, this vintage postcard is a fantastic cross-collectible item, appealing to both deltiologists and philatelists interested in Canadian natural history and postal heritage.
