- Three caps a,b,c,:(a) one red cotton cap with a sun visor, roll-down cover for ears and neck and a quilted pink faux satin interior lining; the ear and neck extension is lined with beige flannel and a knitted rim to keep it secure; hand printed in indelible black ink on the faux satin lining (Ken Jones’s monogram) “K” first and then “J” joined to the top of the K, but higher than the K; this monogram is repeated (one right side up, one reversed) on each side of the seam on the flannel ear extension. There is a label inside the cap; it’s one of the new material labels... “This label shall not be removed until sold by retail and delivered.”(b) one green polyester cap with a small sun visor, roll-down cover for ears and neck and a quilted beige faux satin interior lining; the back of the cap has a knitted green neck extension that goes down the back with the ear flaps attached to this, they are green nylon lined with beige flannel. There are four labels inside the cap: one of the new material labels... “This label shall not be removed until sold by retail and delivered.” ; one “THE ALL SIZER” retailer label “KRYSTAL CAP CO.

The inside did have foam lining but it is disintegrating, mostly gone, and only a remnant of the Ken Jones’s moniker is left. There is circular machine-embroidered patch sewn on the front; it is beige canvas, green-rimmed, three individual orange lines forming an almost circle, at the bottom with the words ‘MOUNTAIN GUIDE”, white on a black background. Overlapping everything is black ski crossed by a black ice pick, and over that, a stylized green maple leaf with the letters “ACMG” in white.

- A portable, collapsible, roll-up canvas camp cot; it folds in half at the centre, has three sets of ‘crossed legs’ (six wooden legs), metal pieces that keep it all together and a piece of canvas that stretches taut when the legs are splayed. There are two extra pieces of wood to make the bed longer by extending the two pieces of hanging canvas at both ends. The bed can be dismantled, rolled up, and tied with the two pieces of heavy cotton twill strips. Printed on the obverse side of the canvas (so when the bed is put together, it is on the underside of the canvas) at either end is a (Ken Jones’s monogram) “K” with a “J” leading off the top of the “K” so it is higher than the K, in black indelible ink.
