P.D. Ayer & Co. Series 6 postcards, as enumerated by Mike Smith in his latest book, The Canadian Patriotic & Heraldic Postcard Handbook 1897–1945, illustrate an image of a crest with the words “Prince Edward Island” below it, and with the French phrase “Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense” worked into the crest, meaning "Shamed be he who thinks evil of it". It is the motto of the English chivalric Order of the Garter. The graphics in the crest predate the grant of a coat of arms in 1905 by royal warrant of the King Edward VII, however the card does bear the motto of Prince Edward Island “Parva sub ingenti” (The small under the protection of the great) that was made part of the later official coat of arms.
