- Description
- Tea dress, c.1910. White cotton with floral eyelets. Round neckline, half length sleeves with gathered cuffs, floor length, full skirt at natural height, non-cinched waist. Around the neck, shoulders, and on the outsides of the arms, the fabric is heavily eyeleted in a flower pattern. The sleeve cuffs have the same eyelet pattern, gathered into a flounce with a crossover opening at the side. On the front and back bodice, the main dress fabric has a square spiral pattern of bands of floral eyelets. The waist, at the natural height and not cinched, is defined by a band of floral eyelets. The skirt is heavily gathered to this band. At hip level on either side, the eyelet band forms a square with sides that extend almost to the hem. Here, the sides of the square end in square spirals, instead of joining together. Above the floor length hem, there is a band of floral eyelets and two tucks. The dress closes up the centre front with pearl buttons and thread loops. A tag on the inside back of the bodice neck area reads "Ladies Outfitting Dept. / Harrods / London SW."

- Object History
- Salvation Army Guide uniform dress belonging to Virginia Blake, early 1960s. From the 6th Vancouver Salvation Army Guides on Hastings Street. Salvation Army was affiliated with Girl Guides (1937) of Canada until 1998. Worn with brown leather belt, beret, folded triangular company tie. The three white stripes on the right breast pocket indicate that wearer was a company leader. The more stripes you had, the higher your rank. A single white stripe, sewn down the center of the pocket, would have indicated that she was a patrol seconder. Two stripes would indicate that she was a patrol leader. White adhesive tape was used so that the Guider didn’t have to unstitch and re-sew the stripes as they gained rank.

- wrapper ; white tissue paper with print in cobalt blue ink; image of three snow covered mountains inside blue circle with two rectangular extensions on either side containing writing in Chinese characters; smaller Chinese characters below in blue ink; handwritten annotation in black ink on bottom right reads: "1973 SEASON"
- Object History
- Item was part of a scrapbook created by Cecil Chue Kan Lee documenting the time he was employed as a Prodcue Buyer for Kelly Douglas and Company Limited and Western Commodities Limited in the 1970s and early 1980s. As a produce buyer for Kelly Douglas, Cecil Lee worked closely with local farmers along Marine Drive and in the Fraser Valley. The Burnaby company was one of the largest food distributors in Canada. In the mid-1970s, Lee was asked to oversee the import of Chinese mandarin oranges into Canada. Until that time, mandarin oranges had come from Japan and were sold in the winter, especially at Christmas. When the Japanese market could no longer keep up with demand, Kelly Douglas looked to China. The company relied on Lee’s cultural knowledge to build this very profitable part of their business.
