1780’s Trading Ceremony At York Factory. Lithograph. $675
Located in NW Edmonton. Framed Lithograph, measures 16 1/2” wide x 19” high. Price $675. Trading Ceremony at York Factory, 1780's By ADAM SHERIFF SCOTT, R.C.A. The arrival of the main body of Indians in the early summer was one of the important events of the year at the posts along the shores of Hudson Bay. Andrew Graham, who was at York Factory for several years, has left us an eye-witness account of the elaborate ceremony that preceded the trading at York when the Indian canoe fleet arrived from the West. After they had landed at the fort and had been duly received by the governor (as the local officer in charge was known), the chief and his lieutenant were dressed up in European clothes and then escorted to the chief's lodge with much pageantry. "In front are the halberts and ensigns," writes Graham, "next to the drummer beating a march; then several of the Factory Servants bearing the bread, and prunes, pipes, brandy, tobacco, and the beaver coats of the chief, which he had on when admitted into the Factory. Then comes the Captain [chief] walking quite erect and stately, smoaking his pipe and conversing with the Governor and his officers; then follow the Lieutenant and perhaps a friend or two who was permitted to come in with the Chief." In the picture, the chief, attired in scarlet, with one red stocking and one blue, is seen walking with the governor in all his finery. The walls of the fort, rising above the palisade, are of squared logs covered with plaster. The red ensign bears the Company's coat-of-arms in the fly. Price $675. Can ship once paid. Located in NW Edmonton. Available 7 days a week. Call or text me 780-803-7501

Sanderson made British Pattern 1907 Bayonet with Scabbard issued to Canadian Regiment Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders
Manufactured by Sanderson in February 1917. The reverse side ricasso has standard marks, the "X" bend test, three Enfield RSAF inspection marks and the Broad Arrow British Government acceptance stamp at the top. The pommel is marked A.S.H.C. for the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders, Canada Below this is the number “178” which suggests the weapon number, and the numbers 4 21 below that are dates the regiment acquired the bayonet. This Canadian Scottish regiment was a training regiment during WW1 and was absorbed into the C.E.F for overseas service.   The left side of the blade at the base has a Crown stamped in with the number 1907 below it. The right side of the blade at the base has a number of markings. There is a small crown with the numbers IV beneath it and Below that is the initial E.  Which signifies the Inspector was located at the Enfield Factory. Above the crown is the Broad Arrow, a British Govt Property mark. There is the X bend-test mark.  On each side of the X are acceptance marks.  The side of the pommel opposite the button has the initials A.S.H.C. with a line underneath.  The button works properly. Below the line is the number 178, believed to be the weapon number. Below 178 is 4 and 21 on each side of the lanyard hole for the date April 1921   The scabbard is in very good solid condition. The end of the scabbard is stamped  137. The back of the scabbard has the initials stamped into the leather J.W.B. with the number 18 Stamped below the initials.  J.W.B. is the Manufacturer of the scabbard in 1918. "J.W.B. on a bayonet scabbard stands for J. W. Browne (or Brown) of Birmingham, a leather goods manufacturer who made scabbards, often for the British Pattern 1907 bayonet, with typical markings including the date (e.g., 1918) and acceptance stamps, indicating wartime production during World War I for the British and Canadian forces.

Photo of 1919 McLaughlin HA 63 touring car assembly project for sale
$15000
1919 McLaughlin HA 63 touring car assembly project for sale
1919 McLaughlin HA 63 touring car assembly project for sale This is a very rare Canadian made car. Less than 6 left that I am aware of. Built with McLaughlin quality, a step above Buick in terms of finish. The person who buys this car should plan on spending a few days with me as we go through all the boxes of parts and supplies, bring your own video camera. You would benefit by spending a few days with me going through what everything is and what I have learned. It is a project, but a lot of the big dollar expenses are completed. The engine has been rebuilt but not completely reassembled. It has new rings & pistons, new valves, new Babbitt (all back in the engine). All the parts are on hand to reassemble the engine including the hard-to-find generator. There is an extra engine and transmission included. It comes with 2 marvel carbs; one has been rebuilt. The frame is in good condition and has been sand blasted as are the fenders. There is an extra front axle and an extra rear end but only one complete crown and pinion. The springs have also been repaired and have new bushings. All plating has been done including dog bone and McLaughlin Motometer. The wheels have been respoked and the rims have been cadmium coated (not painted) I also have 4 original screw on “hub caps” in excellent condition. All wood has been replaced but has not been reassembled. It was redone in Ash as original (air dried for 25 years from our Ontario farm and stored in our barn) except the top bows which needed to be bent with green oak. The oak bows were made in 2 pcs each and are bent but need to be shaped to fit the arms which were also rebuilt. Includes all pictures taken over time, and a video from the early days of taking it apart. It also comes with copies of manuals I have managed to get, not all for the right year but still useful. Mostly this car was referred to as H63 model but the plate on the toe board has the model as HA 63 which I assume meant the “special” version. The special also has wheels in yellow and the original wheels on this car had been yellow, some of the paperwork shows these details. I also have number of period accessories; they are not included in this deal but are available. Including horsehair blanket, spare tanks for running board (Water Gas oil), Period aftermarket electric Canadian wiper system, Running board cooler. I am asking $15K, which just cover my out-of-pocket expenses, nothing for the years of time invested. Recent health issues would suggest I will be unable to complete this project. It is an excellent project for someone. I am located near Grande Prairie in Northern Alberta. Call me for a chat, if you are seriously interested, with any questions you may have and more pictures, Phone 587-726-9056 At this point you can complete it to a prize-winning car if you desire.
