Item is a colour image of the construction of the Haida house at the Haida Village at Totem Park at the University of British Columbia (UBC). The Memorial Pole appears on the left; the House frontal post appears in the centre; disassembled Wasgo appears on the right
In the foreground is the memorial pole by Bill Reid and Doug Cranmer. The newly constructed Haida and mortuary houses are in the background with other totem poles.
Aerial view of Haida House after construction and carvings were complete. The date of the annotation must be incorrect as the double mortuary pole and the house front totem pole were not completed until 1962.
