On May 11, 1915 a Jewish immigrant from Romania wrote a postcard from the small town of Rimouski, Quebec Addressed to "Misses Nahamovitch" of Montreal, in it he describes in Romanian about how he had attended a town parade featuring music by a band from Quebec City. This unusual gem is part of the Sherker family collection which we received in 1992.

Le 11 mai 1915, un immigrant juif roumain écrivit une carte postale de la petite ville de Rimouski, au Québec, adressée à Mlles (ou Madame) Nahamovitch de Montréal. Il y décrivait, en roumain, avoir assisté à un défilé municipal animé par un orchestre de Québec. Ce précieux document fait partie de la collection de la famille Sherker, que nous avons reçue en 1992.
