Vickie Jensen's description (from November 2021 archival accession notes): "I heard that Norman carved the mace for the provincial chambers but haven't seen any photos of it; these photos [not taken by Vickie] seem to show the chair and kneeling bench (?) that John Livingston carved and that Norman is helping to assemble. [Also consists of] photos Vickie took of an old chair that a classmate brought to Klee Wyck carving class one night. She specialized in restoring old art work and had received this chair to work on. There's a business card with the photos, but I don't remember that person."
