Arthur David Kean, cinematographer, created this film of New Westminster’s 1915 and 1917 May Day festival. The 35mm nitrate film was in amazing shape except that the beginning and the end of the film were missing. The film was digitized for the New Westminster Archives ( https://www.newwestcity.ca/services/arts-and-heritage/museums-and-archives )
