Wish You Were Here, from Albert Carmichael

 

Here's an example of what may be Albert Carmichael's scarcest series, Taylor & Pratt Series #669. These cards all featured fish and they're usually worth a bit of a grin, so I don't know why they didn't sell. The series seems to have been produced in 1910, or at least that's how Carmichael dated them. 

Postcards related to hunting and fishing were quite popular, a quick and convenient way for a fellow on a sporting expedition to let the family at home know he was still alive.
