File includes one drawing and six photographs of MOA Object ID A50006 which is a totem pole. The photographs are annotated with handwritten and typed information about their original repositories. The contents of this file were used to create object labels for MOA's Great Hall.
File mainly contains historical images of the Heiltsuk, Nuxalk, and Wuikinuxv First Nations. These images depict village life, architecture and house posts, and regalia. The file contains images of a group of Nuxalk who traveled to Berlin to perform there. Images that are not historical depict a ceremony happening in the Great Hall at UBC MOA, unidentified artists working on a set of drawings, and what appears to be the Acwsalcta High School in Bella Coola. Non textual records include photocopies of photographs, and photocopies of museum catalogue cards.
