This horse and sleigh “distributing the Christmas mail in Montreal” is from the weekly Montreal Standard (1905-1951).
It reminds me of my father's memories growing up in Montreal's poor Point St. Charles district in the '20s and '30s. He used to reminisce about how he would run along behind a horse drawn cart grabbing any pieces of coal that might fall off of the back.
