- Object History
- Note from donor: These items belonged to Eleanor Galbraith, a longtime Guider who came to B.C. from New Brunswick. It is possible that this card was used for teaching when Eleanor was a leader later on because it has her writing on it; an original card from back in the day would have her leader’s writing, not hers.
