Scope and content
Tacoma Mayor John C. Siegle presents an award at the "Grand Champion Dog Show" on December 11, 1938, at the Greenwich Colliseum. Standing across from Mayor Siegle is possibly the judge of the speciality show, the Very Rev. William S. Walsh of Gervais, Oregon. The mayor is holding a handful of ribbons. There is an American Kennel Club (AKC) trophy on the table next to a black and white spaniel. It is believed that this dog was judged best-of-breed in the first annual cocker spaniel speciality show sponsored by the Tacoma Cocker Spaniel Club. Willett's To-Tone Toni, a 17-month black and white particolor, bested the nearly 70 entries. The dog is owned by Mr. and Mrs. J.H. Willett of Salem, Oregon. ALBUM 11. (TNT 12-12-38, p. 12)
