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.

- Description
- A cylindrical canvas bag, tan/gold coloured with a patch of lightweight, cream-coloured canvas (38.0cmx 31.0cm wide) hand sewn on over a large hole. One round piece of lightweight, cream-coloured canvas (28.0cm radius) is sewn on the bottom; attached to this is a rectangular piece of canvas folded over and stitched, creating a handle. On the top of the bag there are twelve metal grommets, through which a corded rope is threaded through creating a drawstring for closure. The cord is loop-knotted and there are brass-coloured metal pieces clamped on the folded-over ends to prevent them from unravelling. The manufacturer’s name is obliterated by the patch covering the hole; visible: “RY” underneath that “RES LTD” , underneath that “R B C”. On the opposite side of the patch, on the sewn seam, 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. This is repeated below the patch, but the “J” is partially covered by the patch. Near this, printed horizontally with black ink “KEN. JONES,” underneath that “GOLDEN, B.C.,” and underneath that “CANADA.”. This is repeated on the other side, except for “CANADA”, but is very faded.

- 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.
