You've Come A Long Way Vancouver  Digging more into our history, we've found that Dominion Map and Blueprint Company at some point gained rights to the publishing of Vancouver's first sectional map booklet and continued to publish those maps over many decades. So in some way we've been involved in the history of Vancouver's streets and signs since our beginning. To further support our outdoor and indoor sign printing capabilities we now offer ProCut fabrication and cutting. Check out this Video to see how we do it, and enjoy the new Century Club posts below. Have a great summer.

The Sectional Map & Street Directory
 The Vancouver Sectional Map and Street Directory was the brainchild of a man named Robert Morton. Morton was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1856. He immigrated to Winnipeg in 1911, then moved to Vernon, BC, for about five years, and then to Calgary.
In 1931-32 Morton moved to Vancouver and took up residence at 2119 Maple Street. He began publishing a sectional map booklet and street index of the city because an ordinary map of Vancouver was too bulky to carry around. The booklet covered Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Surrey, Maillardville, Lulu Island, and Sea Island. Morton himself went door to door selling his booklets, and was still doing so at the age of 87 in 1942. Click Here to find out more and how Vancouver's street names originated.

Carnegie Library & Print is Credible
 The Carnegie Library was an over due addition to the Vancouver landscape as there were at the time 125 Carnegie Libraries in Canada, almost all in Ontario. Never-the-less, it's been a treasure in Vancouver, and still fulfills the role of both a library and social services centre. It stands as a testament of time, further confirming the Credibility of print. Click Here to read the full article. |
