Scope and Content
Photograph of a group of workmen working on a Canadian Pacific Railway bridge in Mission. This photograph appears to have been taken by Arthur Peers, who travelled through the Fraser River Valley and worked on the construction of the Trans-Provincial Highway during the later 1920s, so these may be members of a work crew taking a break alongside the road.
