From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.
Custodial History
Donated by Margaret and Mike Kinnear.
Scope and Content
Photograph of five people in costumes. There is another person on the left, but only their arm is visible. They appear to be inside of a home.
"MIKE TOPP (front left) took two out of the three trophies up for grabs in the Belly Flop Contest with
his spectacular belly flop and cannonball dives. Alex Loker (front right) who can’t swim, took top
honours in the best costume event, not so much for his outfit but for best impersonation as a swimmer.
Bill Dauphinee, last year’s champion, and Mike Whelan and Brian McCallum did their best but didn’t
pull off any wins this year."
