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
