[BCMA] Unaccessioned items offered for transfer

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Good morning BCMA Colleagues,

As part of Sidney Museum's ongoing collections management work, we have
come across a selection of items that were never formally accessioned into
the Museum's permanent collection. Due to their being found-in-collection
and a lack of provenance information, we are offering them for transfer.

I have attached a document to this email that includes photos of the items
in question, and can provide summative information below:


   1. Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) Service Dress Jacket c.1938.
   2. Royal Canadian Airforce Dress Shoes
   3. Canadian Army WW2-era "Walking Out Uniform" Jacket, Pants, & ankle
   puttees, made by Selfast Manufacturing
   4. Royal Canadian Airforce Jacket and Cap c. 1956
   5. Peaked Cap from 29th Vancouver Battalion, "Tobin's Tigers", Canadian
   Expeditionary Force.
   6. Steamer Trunk that the donor claimed came to Canada in the 1790's.
   Handmade cedar, wrought iron and original cowhide. approximately 3 feet
   long, 2 feet wide, 1.5 feet tall.

All items will be available for transfer until Thursday, November 28th.

Please note that receiving institutions are asked to reimburse Sidney
Museum for packaging and shipping costs.

Thank you!
Michael Goodchild

*We respectfully acknowledge the Sidney Museum & Archives has been shaped
by the colonial history of Canada, and is located in Sidney/SET,TINES on
the traditional territory of the W̱SÁNEĆ People, including the **BOḰEĆEN

acknowledgment is just one part of Reconciliation, and the museum continues
to work towards other ways that we can participate in Reconciliation
alongside Indigenous communities.*
