Here are the three honourable mentions! The first design was submitted by Matthias Reinicke. The second design was submitted by Kyra Doyle, a very talented 11-year-old. The third design was submitted by Jocelyn Bacon. It was so hard to turn them down!

This WWII poster was one of many that used to hang in the Mill during wartime. This one, and many others, was kept by Andrew Devlin who thought people might want to know "what times were like". qMAS ID: 2013.41.27 #throwbackthursday #worldwars #rembranceday #powellriver

#artiFACT For November's #artifactofthemonth staff has picked this bronze memorial plaque from World War I. It was sent to the donor after her husband died overseas in 1917. The name on the plaque is Hazen Winslow Hall. qMAS ID: 1964.31.1 #remembranceday #powellriver

Last Saturday was Remembrance Day. Though both WWI and WWII were fought overseas, they affected every town and all the people in them, including Powell River. #quoteoftheweek #qathetmuseum #powellriver #remembranceday #qathetregion

This poster is one of many that hung in the Mill in WWII. Posters such as these were supposed to encourage workers to buy victory bonds to support the war efforts. qMAS ID: 2013.41.6 #throwbackthursday #worldwar #remembranceday #powellriver #qathetregion #qathetmuseum

The Powell River Public Library can trace its origins back a number of decades! This photo is from 1954, and was taken in the Westview Public Library. It's a snap shot of story time, though if you look closely, one child is sleeping. qMAS Photo ID: 1967.1.3840 #throwbackthursday
