Northern BC in 1950s
Posted by M_Robinson on Wednesday, September 1, 2010 11:29 AM

Hello All

I am considering modeling Northern British Columbia (Smithers area) in the early 1950s. Can anyone suggest books etc. that would be useful to research this?

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike

Can't suggest any books but the B.C. Archives site has lots of online photo's. That should give you lots of ideas. Also check out the City Of Vancouver online pic's.
