This item was donated accompanied by a postal enveloped, addressed to Miss Hope Elsbree in Providence, Rhode Island. The envelope also bears postmarks for Leaskdale, Ontario, and Uxbridge, Ontario (the last dated June 20 1917). A note from the donor indicates the Miss Elsbree evidently wrote L.M. Montgomery requesting that the author autograph her calling card. The envelope was also found to contain a small, handwritten note, reading "Lucy Maud Montgomery, 1874-1942 Canadian Novelist - 'Anne of Green Gables' 1908".
