Mildred Laurie - Photo album photographs
File consists of photographs and postcards from an album assembled by Laurie Mildred, with images from northern Vancouver Island, especially Alert Bay. Also included are prints of slides and negatives from other files in this fonds. The items were removed from the album for preservation purposes. Prior to doing this, photocopies of the album pages were made to preserve the order of material and some handwritten annotations. These photocopies are included in the file.
