Scope and content
This series consists chiefly of artifacts used or created by the Sons of Scotland Benevolent Association at the Scottish Centre in Verdun. The artifacts include commemorative plaques, badges, and sash pins worn by members and officers during meetings and functions, a gavel, a trophy, and framed photograph of Queen Elizabeth II. Some of the artifacts are related to administrative activities, including two embossing machines and blank letterhead and stationery.There is also some textual ephemera representing social activities of the Scottish Centre, such as a list of Christmas carols.
