Photo of artists Doug Cranmer guiding a roof beam into place. This photograph was taken during the original construction of the Haida house in Totem Park.
The caption on this slide simply states "Coast Salish." A possible second caption on a sheet of paper states "Alert Bay Big House." A unique aspect of this house is that what once were interior house posts have been moved to the exterior of what was likely a later structure. This photograph may have been used in a book by Marius Barbeau or Edward Linnaeus Keithahn.
