Scope and content

The series consists of silent films and film footage about bees and bee-keeping in British Columbia, accumulated by the Apiary Branch of the B.C. Dept. of Agriculture. Most of the material was shot by apiarists or bee-keeping enthusiasts; however, there is little or identification of the photographers, shooting dates, etc. Some of the locations and individuals shown are identified in the notes on file.
