“Map of Richmond Municipality” print by C. W. Buckle (1945)

I was about to write that I'd never been to Richmond, but then I realized that I'd flown into the Vancouver International Airport, and here it is on Sea Island as it stood in 1945. Anyway, Richmond was incorporated as a municipality in 1879, the Sea Island airport was built in 1931, Richmond became a city in 1990, and this handsome brown-on-beige map was drawn by C. W. Buckle of the Richmond Municipal Hall.
