Respectfully compiled by Kevin Burton Smith. I swiped the postcard on top from Sam Wiebe’s excellent Substack, and the stil photo on the bottom is from Out of the Shadows, a 1957 docudrama produced for the Salvation Army in 1957 by Lew Parry Film Productions, about a homeless alcoholic on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
