House front totem poles at UBC
Fait partie de MOA General Media collection
Four house front totem poles stand in a meridian, likely at the University of British Columbia. These were largely recovered from Ninstints in 1957. A diving board in the background, as well as the buildings, suggest the photograph was taken on University Boulevard, west of the intersection with Wesbrook Mall.

University of British Columbia (UBC) series
Fait partie de Vickie Jensen and Jay Powell fonds
Series consists of photographs documenting totem pole raising or restoration and other events held at the University of British Columbia (UBC) Museum of Anthropology (MOA).
In 1976 Jensen was hired by MOA to document the installation of totem poles into the new building. Jensen did not keep the negatives for these photographs (MOA did in this instance). She was hired again in 1981 to create a slide loop of images to be featured in the museum. After working with the museum, she felt welcome there and often gave talks or did training. Most of the subsequent photographs in this series were taken at public events such as book launches or pole raisings.
