📸 Front (Image & Style
Main Image: A rural pastoral scene — shepherd with a flock of sheep, red-roofed farmhouse in the background.
Framing: The scene is inset into a gilt-edged geometric window, surrounded by decorative daisies and scrollwork.
Greeting: “Best Wishes” in a stylized, semi-Gothic script with curlicues.
Style:
The floral and scroll elements are strongly Art Nouveau (organic curves, stylized daisies).
The inset pastoral “window” with geometric edging hints at an early Arts & Crafts influence, where rustic life and decorative framing collide.
Publisher’s Mark: Bottom corner reads “Manser” in a circle — a known postcard printer of embossed and decorative greeting cards in the early 1900s.
Era: Circa 1908–1915.

Stamp: Canada 1¢ Edward VII definitive, green.

Embossing: The daisy motif is embossed on the reverse, showing through.
