Dudely Booth of historicphotos.ca At 14, Dudley Booth wasn't too interested in history. But he saved a box of negatives His father found in a trash pile, and hung on to them for over 50 years... The New Westminster Heritage Preservation Society have invited me topresent a slide show and lecture of photos from my collection of one of a kind images. These rare photos were all taken by professional photographers of the era. The slide show will consist of approximately one hundred and ten photos dating from the the late 1800's to the early 1930's. The majority of the photos will be of Vancouver and surrounds, including New Westminster. Also included will be some turn of the century portraits of the Inuit of Chesterfield Inlet, NWT and other photos of interest. The meeting is open to the public and will be held on April 15th at 7pm in the Galbraith House, located at 131 - 8th Street New Westminster. The Galbraith House is a heritage mansion over one hundred years old. Attached photo of the Vancouver Hotel by Cyril R. Littlebury, on July 8, 1925, on Georgia Street at Burrard Street.
