IMAGE INFORMATION
The older woman with the splint basket on left, resting on a small ticking mattress , is unknown. The younger woman drinking a soda, center, is Marian Pictou Harlowe. The man with binoculars, seated on a driftwood log, is Tom Pictou. One of 116 images collected for copying by Darlene Ricker between 1990 and 1997, as part of a project of the Bear River Mi'kmaq Reserve, Bear River, NS. Initiated by Chief Frank Meuse, the project, set up to preserve the reserve's history, resulted in a book by Darlene Ricker, 1997. The Nova Scotia Museum, Halifax, contributed the copywork for all photographs lent to the project, on the understanding that they would keep the copy negatives, but return the originals and provide the lenders with 8x10 prints of each item loaned for copying.
