Caption from metadata: "Dan Pederson takes a closer look at some of the 3,000 pins in his collection, at the Pacific Pin Club's first public show and sale at the Capitol Hill Community Centre. Pederson says he started collecting pins in 1984, at the Los Angeles Olympics and he's travelled to various competitions like the Commonwealth, Pan Am and Canada Games to amass his collection. "I like to trade with the actual athletes," he says. "Every pin has a story." The Pin Club has about 44 members from Vancouver Island to Alberta. It started when collectors, who started accumulating pins during Expo 86, started getting together to compare and trade their finds. The club meets monthly."

Caption from metadata for 535-1621-1 and 535-1621-2: "It's not a remake of the film Gladiator. Richard Bertrand, aka "Sir Kheron" of the Barony of Lions Gate, prepares to go into battle at a meeting of the Society for Creative Anachronism at the Capitol Hill Community Hall. The Society's more than 24,000 members worldwide, study and recreate the arts, sciences, literature and recreation of the European Middle Ages, before 1600 A.D."
Caption from metadata for 535-1621-3: "Residents in the Capitol Hill area would be excused if they thought they had been transported through time to the medieval age on Saturday, as members of the Society for Creative Anachronism met, and battled, at the Capitol Hill Community Hall. Richard Bertrand, aka "Sir Kheron" of the Barony of Lions Gate, has the upper hand on Crawford Tate, aka "Crawford Lum the Elder," of the Bary of Seagirt. The Society's more than 24,000 members worldwide, study and recreate the arts, sciences, literature and recreation of the European Middle Ages, before 1600 A.D."
