Seldom seen and unused c. 1930s double-wide, panoramic postcard of “Little Joe,” a “little person” in North Bay, Ontario, Canada! Little Joe, seen in the insert posing in a tuxedo, was J. C. Raymond, who operated “Little Joe’s White Line Cabins.” The roadside tourist cabins were on Highway 11, five doors south of the South Gateway in the Ferris area of town on Lakeshore Dr. There has been speculation that Little Joe’s home, seen at far right, was later the main building in the Glenwood Park Cabins complex, which later became the site of the Glenwood Motel. Mr. Raymond, born on 08-08-1888, was 48 inches tall and weighed 58 pounds. A classic roadside America collectible in excellent condition!
