Recently, I received a large electronic shipment of interesting documents from Canada for the exhibition.
I have previously written about Strútur from Ólafsvellir, the first Icelandic dog that was exported to Canada. Now, I have obtained letters and other documents about his purchase and export, newspaper articles, photos, and also photocopies of correspondence with Mark Watson about his book.
It is very pleasing to receive such documents that trace the interesting story of Strútur and preserve it.
The Consulate General of Iceland in Winnipeg assisted with the photocopying of the documents that Salín Guttormsson was providing. I am very grateful to Salín and the Consulate General of Iceland in Winnipeg for this collaboration. The photocopies are of the highest quality so it will be easy to reprint the documents and have them on display at the exhibition.
