Toronto Litho Co. Ltd.

Ottawa

Toronto

The Toronto Lithographing Co. Limited was active from 1878 until 1909, when the company changed its name to Stone Ltd. The company moved to its premises in Toronto to 461 King West, built in 1901 (with premises spanning 450—467 King Street West by 1903).

The company produced a series of postcards in the late 19th century and early 20th century featuring vignettes of buildings and views of major Canadian cities. Most cities are represented by two cards from each city. Below are a few examples of these cards. You will note one series of the cities-related cards has the address and the stamp on the front, and a blank back, while a later series has address and stamp on the back, brought in when postal regulations changed. Another series illustrates Canadian Sports.
