Description |
A black and white photographic print of the D Company basketball team from 1922-1923. The print has been attached to a larger piece of card that has a title above, names below the image, and a decorative border around the print. The image depicts eight men in their basketball uniforms (a horizontally striped singlet, shorts, and striped knee-socks), arranged in rows with 4 men standing in the back row, 3 men sitting on stools in the middle row, and 1 man seated cross-legged on the floor. The man seated on the floor has an early basketball (the same style as used for football in this period) on the floor in front of his feet. The ball has "RCR" written on it. 3 of the men are posed with arms crossed (the man on the floor and the man on the left of each row). The top of the frame has the title " "D" COMPANY - ROYAL CANADIAN REGIMENT / BASKETBALL TEAM - 1922-23". The bottom of the frame has the names and positions of the men on the team: "PTE. C.F. HARRINGTON (Guard); CPL. P. GODON (Guard); PTE W. PETERS (Forward); MAJOR H.L.N. SALMON, M.C. (Forward) / SGT. H. CHARBONNEAU (Guard); CPL. E. PETERSON (Guard); SGT. E. SARRASIN (Forward) / CPL. G.E.
