Provenance |
In 1947, the late H.F Holland reached out to the community to source and collect photographs of former teams and sporting events to be displayed in exhibition at the new Sarnia Arena. Mr. Holland was ultimately turned down for the display. However, he continued to gather materials with the encouragement and assistance of local commercial photographer Doug Paisley, who re-photographed the old pictures so the originals could be returned to their owners. The collection grew to include people, buildings, events and more, dating back to the mid 1800's across the County. For some of these original images, this may be the only remaining documentation of them. |
