Beaver British Empire Cereal Wheat

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed colour lithograph from the 1920s showcases a snapshot of The British Empire, focusing on Canada. The image is part of a series of large cigarette cards distributed with Wills's "Gold Flake" in 1929, providing a glimpse into the diverse landscapes and wildlife that made up this vast empire. In this particular print, we see iconic symbols of Canada such as wheat fields stretching to the horizon, highlighting the country's importance as a major producer of cereal crops. A beaver, representing Canada's national animal, can be seen in the foreground symbolizing industriousness and resilience. The lush fruit depicted in the image serves as a reminder of Canada's rich agricultural heritage and abundance of natural resources. This colourful illustration captures the essence of North America during this period within The British Empire. As viewers take in this scene, they are transported back to an era when Britain held sway over vast territories across the globe. This print not only serves as a historical document but also celebrates the beauty and diversity found within one corner of The British Empire during its heyday in the early 20th century.
