The 3"x5" vintage black and white photograph has two older boys holding a sign that reads McKillop S.S. No 6. accompanied by a group of children wearing what appears to be Cana- dian themed outfits. A teacher stands to the left; boys are on one side, girls on the other with one female wearing a crown with the word "CANADA" across her shirt. McKillop S.S. No 6. is a school Duffy admitted to attending, along with his father. Before his father passed at 92 -years -old a few years back, the two were going through some artifacts and the item surfaced from a "large old steel trunk." Duffy 1 1T II said his father had no recol- lection of where it came from. "It's been driving me nuts," commented Duffy relating to the mystery behind the image. "You look at the teacher, the way she is dressed, (and) I would say it has to be from the 1920s." It seems that the item was meant to be mailed as the words "POST CARD" in capital letters alongside a placement for stamps can be found on the back of the puzzling relic. Since most of the people in the photo are wearing maple leafs and poppies, Duffy suggested it might be in celebration of confederation. "Is it a Canada Day thing? Or a fair? In them days, I guess they had the fairs at the schools eh?" His father was the young- est sibling; Duffy isn't ruling out the possibility that the subjects in the photo could have a connection to his aunts and/or uncles.
