Wilcox Collection

  • CMC PHO-A28
  • Fonds
  • [ca.1900]-1928, predominant 1900-1910

This collection consists of 46 black & white snapshot photographs mounted in an album (designated A28) and five other photographs of various sizes found loose in the album. Almost all of the photographs date from ca.1900 - 1910. Subjects include locations from Liverpool to Saskatchewan and it is possible that the album documents the experiences of British immigrants who homesteaded on the Saskatchewan prairie around the turn of the century. Included among the photographs are views that, although unidentified, are possibly of the interior and exterior of a homesteader's cabin. Also included are several views of various farm equipment and livestock. Other photographs include a 1920 photograph of a threshing machine and a 1928 souvenir photograph of a B.C. Electric Railway touring car.
