The Tour
   

Mr. Alex Logan was a curler residing in Parry Sound Ontario, when he got the opportunity to join the Canadian Curling Tour of Scotland in 1909.

We are fortunate to have been allowed to share with you rare photos and documents from that great adventure.

Many thanks to Deb (Logan) Marinier, who is Mr. Alex Logan's great granddaughter, and her husband, D.A.(Dave) Marinier, of Georgian Art Services.
