Treasures of the CNE: Memorabilia and Tales from the Canadian National Exhibition

One of the leading collectors of memorabilia from the Canadian National Exhibition tells the stories of "The Ex". Celebrating a joyful feature of our country's heritage, the full-colour photos of the author's extensive collection of cherished memorabilia from the CNE bring to life a bygone era. Anecdotes from fellow fans of Canada's great fair evoke a simpler time when CNE treats cost just pennies, when admission to the fair was a quarter and when the country fell in love with Marilyn Bell as she completed her historic swim across Lake Ontario to Toronto's shores, and into our hearts.
