Mennonite Churches and Institutions
This collection consists of photos taken by C.F. Klassen in 1938 (mostly), of churches and institutions where Russian Mennonite immigrants from the 1920s (Russlaender) worshiped. These include urban and remote centres from Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Colombia. All photos were placed artistically in a photo album with black pages and affixed with photo corners. White ink under each photo identified the locations and buildings.
