This is a copy of 29^th (Vancouver) Battalion, C.E.F. Pictorial Record and Original Muster Roll, published in 1919.

The 29^th Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force was formed in Vancouver in 1914; it was formed through a combination of the Duke of Connaught’s Own Rifles, the 72^nd Highlanders, the 104^th Regiment, and the Irish Fusiliers. It was raised by Lt.-Col. H.S. Tobin and became known as ‘Tobin’s Tigers’; it received honours for its role at, among other battles, Mount Sorrel, the Somme, Vimy, Scarpe, Ypres, Passchendaele, Amiens and Flanders.

This book was produced to commemorate all of Tobin’s Tigers. It was privately produced, in a very small quantity.

64 pages, 14” x 10”

Glossy high-quality paper and superb photographs, including fold-outs.

There is a tiny bump to the spine and the covers could be cleaned; any printer can do this.

There is very minor yellowing to some of the pages; the original owner signed the front endpaper and dated it March 1919; it appears that he did this in pencil.

Superb condition.
