Charlie James' totem pole after restoration work by Mungo Martin. It is likely standing in Totem Park at UBC in this photograph. It was later moved to the Great Hall in the Museum of Anthropology.
The pole was re-adzed and re-painted by Kwakwaka'wakw carver Mungo Martin before shipping to UBC in 1947. Repainted and repaired by Ellen Neel (1949) and by Mungo Martin (1950-51). It stood at Totem Pole Park, UBC Campus until it was re-located to the Museum's Great Hall ca. 1976.
