Arriving at Montreal 1969

Image of a shipment of boxes being unloaded in Montreal. The boxes are likely full of objects for display, possibly at the Man and His World exhibit at the Expo 67 site.

At Rugged Point Beach

An image of a child holding glass balls of different sizes. According to the documentation included with the filmstrip, the description of the image states "Diane Jack holds glass balls found on Rugged Point beach. Every year thousands of these fish floats are lost by Japanese fishermen. They float over from Japan on the Japanese Current, and the surf throws them onto the beaches of the West Coast of North America."

Audrey Hawthorn

Audrey Hawthorn in what appears to be the rotunda at the new Museum of Anthropology building. The annotation on this slide gives the date as May 1956 but based on Audrey Hawthorn's appearance and photographs similar to this one the annotation is in error. As it is labelled as Audrey Hawthorn at a press conference, this photograph was likely taken at the press conference associated with the opening of the Museum of Anthropology's new location in 1976.

August Jack

Portrait of August Jack. A similar image of him is printed on page 23 of Carter's book Abundant Rivers, with the caption: "August Jack, or Kahts-Lanock, was born of Squamish parents living temporarily in Stanley Park. He was 99 years and 7 months old when he passed away in 1967. Kahts-Lanock was also the last of the medicine men." Other sources suggest that he passed way in 1971 when he was 93 or 94.
