1960, Mystery reel, curling bon-spiel somewhere in the Okanagan, BC

Описание: 1960, Mystery reel, curling bon-spiel somewhere in the Okanagan, BC


Not very many clues as to the specific event or location. But one of Canada's other winter sports, curling. Long before it became an Olympic sport, it was played in curling rinks in towns big and small across Canada every winter. This is in the days of brooms that looked like the broom you used to sweep the porch, men wore Cowichan sweaters, fedoras or felt caps, dress slacks and leather shoes. Curling fashion chic at its height. There may be a few recognizable faces on the rink.  Enjoy!
