Small hole-punch to the upper right corner, and to which would normally be attached a small with a string, lacking in this case. A fascinating piece of Manitoba ephem…era. The booklet comprises of an exhaustive list of names of students, staff, faculty, departments, and which are accompanied with their respective addresses, phone numbers. Replete with many advertisements by sponsoring local business, merchants. Introductory messages from the Dean, various other heads of departments, as well as invitations and introductions by the various heads of student clubs, bus schedules from the Winnipeg Electric Company, and much more. Light wear to the covers, neat period ink name to the upper-margin of the rear covers, contents remain bright, clean, and unmarked with tight, sound binding; fine. Scarce, with no known extant copies available in commerce at time of cataloguing. Not found in Peel, BAC/LAC, University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections. Rare indeed.
