Photograph album by David Anderson, who served with the Canadian Navy, based in Halifax during the Second World War period. Album is labelled "Halifax War Time 39/45." The photographs include images of ships, aircraft, Navy life, and also include a set of images of celebrations of the end of the war in 1945. Anderson was from Thunder Bay.

10 pages of a photo album with images showing daily life and family members, both in the Thunder Bay area and elsewhere, 1920s and 1930s. Arne Taipale was a logger in the Pigeon River area, and some photographs were taken in the area and reflect this work.

Elle migrated from Finland to Port Arthur circa 1923, and met Arne, also Finnish, in Port Arthur. He worked as a logger, but later trained as a plumber. They lived first on Secord St., and later on a homestead near Dog Lake.

These records consist of photographic slides of butterflies, moths, and their eggs and larvae from the collection created by Betty Walker.

Walker began photographing insects in the 1950s, and this collection of over 1100 photographic slides shows her skill at creating highly detailed, up-close images, especially of her favourite butterflies. She was associated with the Thunder Bay Field Naturalists, and presented at their meetings.

Many of the species depicted in the slides have now been identified; the attached PDF gives a more thorough index of the images.
