HistoryPhotos is for photographs (or, if it can be found, film) of the past, recent or distant! Give us a little snapshot of history!

Rules

  1. Be respectful and inclusive.
  2. No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
  3. Foster a continuous learning environment.
  4. No genocide or atrocity denialism.
  5. Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

Cool, so that actually narrows this photo down to a 3-year period.

Yep. Summer of '48, '49, or '50. And if you look in the background of this image, you can see the same short, white bollards and chains around the buildings at Chilliwack Municipal Airport.
