Label TextA souvenir of London, this booklet from around 1901 also aimed to attract new businesses, investment and residents. It describes London as “one of the most beautiful [cities] on the continent.” Its “unsurpassed railway facilities,” the booklet continues, make London the “distributing and manufacturing point” of western Ontario. And since most residents own their homes, it “reduces the possibility of labor (sic) troubles to a minimum.”
