Chinese Nationalist League in Prince Rupert

 

This is an amazingly detailed photo of the Chinese Nationalist League of Canada’s Prince Rupert Branch taken in 1922. The original photo was digitized by the UBC Library. I love the row of children at the front with some faces blurred - they couldn’t sit still for the camera!

The original building, located on 2nd avenue in Prince Rupert , next to the Star Store (east of where Overwaitea is today), - Prince Rupert’s Chinese General store.
