During a First World War military parade on King Street in North Battleford in 1915, children are following along with the marching soldiers and a high ranking officer steps out of formation to greet a lovely lady in a beautiful dress. They certainly turned a few heads!
Shown in picture is the Hotel Metropole and Thomas R. Fetterly Watchmakers and Jewellers. The Travelodge and RCMP Building currently occupy these spots today.Â
This historical photograph from the City of North Battleford Historic Archives, was chosen by the Saskatchewan Council of Archives and Archivists as one of their feature postcards for Archives Week 2015. Archives Week is celebrated annually during the first week of February.
