I'm looking for good photos of convention...preferably Portage la Prairie or Bowsman, MB or Antler, SK from the late 50s early 60s. Ideally, I'd like to see ones that include the barn (ladies quarters) and/or the meeting tent. Actually any photos that would include something reflecting the convention...could be the seats in the meeting tent, or a table in the dining hall or anything really, except worker photos. It's for a painting project.
Blessings, Linda

I have been to Antler and Portage conventions but never Bowsman that I know of.

Hi snow,
Yes, as far as I know Portage convention still exists. Thanks for taking a look.I've been looking through my stuff too, but haven't turned anything up yet that will work for me.

I did last night and so far nothing. Lots of workers pictures from the various conventions, but nothing yet taken of the actual ground. I will keep looking. I never realized how many pictures they had...

The TTT Photo Gallery is not online now, pending reinstallation on new software... This (huge) project is on a back burner right now.
I checked and dont have any MB or SK photos like you are wanting.
Would photos of a dining tent, mtg tent, located elsewhere be of any help?

I've looked through a lot of pictures for you, but still nothing of the actual convention grounds. If I find more packed away in my parents stuff I will definitely keep an eye out for it for you selah

Unrelated...but I went to TTT in search of a photo of Lizzie McCullagh, who I believe is in the mass photo from the Staffordshire Convention (or one of the other early, large gatherings). She bears a strong resemblance to her brothers.
