Description

48 pages. Abundantly illustrated with black and white photos of the bridge and vicinity. Includes three illustrations of the anchorages and pier foundations supporting the structure. Colour photo centerfold of the bridge loose but present. Considerable supporting text. Proudly documents and introduces Vancouver's new Lions Gate Bridge, as well as boasting of many of Vancouver's amenities and features. One page describes Vancouver as "A City of Champions" due to the success of sprinter Percy Williams, boxer "Jimmy" McLarnin, hockey player "Cyclone" Taylor, and others. Two pages are devoted to the First Narros Bridge Company Limited which was incorporated in 1926 to build, own and operate the bridge. Map of British Columbia affixed inside back cover, dated 1937. Prior owner's name clipped from first leaf and its glassine protector. Minor doodling upon first leaf otherwise unmarked. Average external wear and soiling to illustrated brown covers. A lovely memento of Vancouver's earlier days Book
