Scope and content
- The totem pole display area at Brockton Point in Stanley Park is the most visited tourist attraction in all of British Columbia. Several of the original poles had been carved as early as the late 1880s but time plus the elements took their toll over the ensuing decades. The Skedans Mortuary Pole was replaced in 1962 by a replica with all remaining totems being sent to various museums for future preservation and new ones commissioned or loaned to the Park Board between 1986 and 1992. circa 1950.
