WW1 Ontario Canada photo postcard 94th Battalion brass band 1916

Nice photo postcard of the military brass band of the 94th Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (C.E.F.) posing outdoors in Port Arthur (Thunder Bay) on June 15th 1916.

The Battalion was recruited from Northwestern Ontario: Port Arthur, Fort William, Kenora, Rainy River, Fort Frances and Dryden.

Less than two weeks later, they were sailing for England from Halifax.

Interesting to note that the drummer appears to be wearing a leopard skin!

Written on negative ‘ROGERS’ and ‘17’.

Written on back ‘94TH Batt Band Port Arthur June 15th 1916and ‘CANADIAN MILITARY BAND’.

Publisher’s name printed on card ‘Story Photo Co. Fort William Ont.
