Provenance |
Photograph is part of a photo album that has "Chief Forester’s Album" written on the cover. The photos range in date from 1912 to 1929, which leads us to believe it was made for Peter Zemro Caverhill (1884-1935), who was BC’s Chief Forester from 1920-35. A tree was planted in his memory in Stanley Park by the Junior Forest Wardens in 1936. With over 300 photos, the album showcases the Forest Service’s activities throughout the Province of BC. |
