Scope and Content: Photographic postcard of a young member of the Bird family of Toronto, Ontario, dressed in a child-sized military coat and cap, taken in a photographic studio. The badge on the cap appears to be a maple leaf with a scroll running down from left to right at the bottom of the leaf. By 1860, the maple leaf was incorporated into the badge of the 100th Regiment (Royal Canadians) and during the First World War, the maple leaf was included in the badge of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. The badge depicted here may be a cadet or school variation of the standard military badge. The painted backdrop includes a bay window with flower pots at the bottom.
