Scope and content
The series consists of company and family records, and includes newspaper clippings (biographical and obituaries), publications, pamphlets, ephemera and artifacts. Included are illustrated booklets which promote the company and the city of Victoria. These include a company history entitled “The First 60 Years” (1947), “Victoria, the City Beautiful” (ca. 1913), and “Victoria The City Beautiful of the North Pacific" (ca. 1912). Other materials consist of collected pamphlets, postcards, a 1930 Victoria phone book and an undated, early Atlas Road Map of Vancouver Island, B.C.
The series also consists of records which have only a loose connection, or no connection, to the business or the family, and include magazines, newspapers and collected clippings concerning world news, and Victoria places, news and events.
The archivist found the records physically located throughout the fonds and assembled them in one series.
