Description |
A black and white photographic print of the D Company Senior Basketball Team from the 1935-1936 season. The photo was taken while D Company was stationed at Fort St. Jean in Quebec. The print is surrounded by a grey cardboard mat or frame with the title " "D" Company, The Royal Canadian Regiment. / Senior Basketball Team, St-Jean Que." across the top and the names and positions of the men in the photo along the bottom. The frame has a thick black border around the edge of the photo print, with silver decorative accents in the middle of each line and on each corner. The photo depicts 11 men arranged in a row of 6 men standing behind a row of 5 men seated. Every man wears a sweatshirt with a white "D" in the centre of the chest except for the man in the middle of the front row (Major Campbell), who wears a suit, and the man second from the right (Cpl. J. Chapman, Manager), who wears a light-coloured turtleneck. At the feet of the man in the suit are two trophies, presumed the St Johns' Senior League Cup and the St John's Association Cup.
