The postcard promotes the motel's 63 rooms, suites, guest lounge, and amenities such as telephones, radios, TV, and hot water heat with individual room temperature control, reflecting mid-20th century hospitality standards.Printed by Dexter Color, Canada Ltd. of Cornwall, Ontario, this postcard exemplifies the colorful linen printing technique popular in the 1940s-1960s, recognizable by its textured look and scalloped edges. The card provides a glimpse into the roadside motor lodge culture along Nova Scotia's Highway 2 and 4, a sought-after collectible for enthusiasts of vintage Canadian travel memorabilia and motel history.
