Notes
Title based on caption
Collected by editorial for use in a November 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata: "Elmer Rudolph and Bob Henderson help a mature female salmon, weighing about nine pounds, up through the fish weir at the Cariboo dam. The week of heavy rain has finally made conditions favorable for fish to make their journey up the Brunette River from the Fraser, and then on to their spawning beds, and Rudolph is at the dam every day to help them along. On Saturday, in addition to the mature salmon, he also helped four immature males and two 14-inch Cutthroat."

Description
Toll Bridge Tickets - Tickets. Four connected tickets for crossing the Second Narrows Bridge. The tickets are green with a small drawing of the bridge on them. On the top of each ticket is "00191" The tickets were produced by the Vancouver Harbour Commissioners.
Object History
From Denby Bros. Shoe Store at 163 West Pender in Vancouver. Stafford Ague Denby (1882-1957) started peddling shoe findings in 1918 around Vancouver to repair shops around town from the back of an old Ford. Two of his brothers, William Albert (1873-1947) and Melvin Stanley (1879-1953) joined him in 1919 to form Denby Bros & Co. Ltd Leather and Shoe Findings at 163 West Pender. William Gordon Pope started helping out in the shoe store at the age of 10. He eventually ran the store with his cousin, Pat Denby (son of William A. Denby) starting in the 1950s. The store closed in 1974.

Photograph of North Road and the Brunette Bridge, looking south into New Westminster from Burnaby. By the northern end of the bridge, there is a pit being dug with shovels. A few houses can be seen on the southwest side of the bridge. The house furthest away is identified as the William Holmes house (Burnaby's first settler to pre-empt property in Burnaby). All of the land on the right side of the road was purchased by William H. Holmes in 1860 (District Lot 1, Group 1, New Westminster District). A car is parked on the side of the road south of the bridge. The shorter ash tree south of the bridge is identified as the famous "Holmes Ash Tree" (also known as the "Moody tree").
