- Series consists of photographs documenting the construction of the Coliseum building at the CNE. They show the project from the early stages in June 1921 through to October 1921 as the exterior of the structure took form. When the first phase of the building was completed in 1922, the Coliseum was billed as the largest structure of its kind in North America. The construction of the facility was organized by the the CNE Association, and the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair Association, for the exhibition of agricultural products and livestock.
