"Georgian Café, the Grange, Winnipeg." One of a set of collotype postcards produced for the hotel's owner, George Skinner. Unused. Restaurant interiors are really interesting -- countless thousands of these images are preserved on postcards from this era from around the world.

“I met in the lobby of the hotel Mme Pringo, Mr. Haicalis and his daughters, with whom I exchanged a few polite words. As I did not feel quite well, I did not lunch. I had a copious tea at 3 – eggs, bread and butter. I feel very well now.” – C.P. Cavafy, Phalerum, 27 July 1901.
