Scope and content
- The totem pole display area at Brockton Point is the most visited tourist attraction in all of British Columbia. The initial four poles, all from the Alert Bay region on Vancouver Island, were purchased by the Park Board in conjunction with the Art, Historical and Scientific Society (precursor to the Vancouver Museum). Totem pole numbers increased as the City prepared for its Golden Jubilee Celebration in 1936. The totem poles were moved from their original location at Lumberman's Arch in the early 1960's. circa 1930.
