Provenance |
Provenance unknown. Likely belonged to one of the Spragge sisters (Marjorie or Doris) of Owen Sound, Grey County, or their mother, May Spragge (nee Barnhart). Marjorie was born in 1895, so it is likely that the item had belonged to their mother first. Found amongst their estate items. Their family lived on 3rd Avenue East, Owen Sound, Grey County. Their father was an Owen Sound grocer. |
