Scope and Content: Photograph of a large stack of wood prepared for a bonfire on a hill. The bonfire stack is towering over a man who stands in front of it with his arms crossed and wearing a hat. There is a house seen in the background to the left of the photograph. The photograph is identified by the acquisition record and inscription on the back as Queen Victoria's Jubilee bonfire. There is a discrepancy in the records as to who the man is. Some have identified him as Bernard Hill, others, as Mr. L.C. Hill. An annotation on th back of the photo reads, "1897/ Queen Victorias Jubilee/ Bonfire prepared by Mr LC Hill/ just above what is now Deer/ Lake Ave and below the/ present Centennial Pavilion."
