Scope and Content: Photograph of a Japanese bath house built outdoors. There are stacks of wood beside the bath house, which is a small wooden structure with a few small windows.There is a plank board walk on the side of the bath house leading to a well. In the centre of the photograph is a man leaning over a stove. According to a letter sent by the donor, the bath house was built around 1945 - 1946 at Mission Flats, Kamloops, BC by the donor's father, Junzo Yamake (1895-1973). At the time of the letter, the site was part of the Weyerhauser Company's pulp mill complex. The bath house was constructed to complement the house the donor's family was living as there was no indoor bathroom. She writes that it was strange to live in a huge, comfortable English style house, and still have an outhouse, and the outdoor Japanese bath house that were situated around the house. Also, she indicates the man in the centre is her father, Junzo Yamake, boiling water to do spring cleaning.
