Scope and Content: Photograph of Burnaby Municipal Hall decorated for the visit of Lord Willingdon in 1928. Along the steps leading to the main entrance are women in ranger uniforms holding Union Jacks on poles. Lord Willingdon and other dignitaries are standing in front of the entrance. The doorway is decorated with a sign that reads, "WELCOME TO BURNABY LORD WILLINGDON" There is a woman climbing up the steps towards Lord Willingdon. Lord Willingdon was Canada's Governor General at that time. The photographer is speculated to be Lloyd studio, because of the similarity with the photograph HV977.17.15 of Lord Willingdon's visit by Lloyd studio
