Item · 1948, [19?]
Part of Prairie Ephemera Collection

Two booklets providing an overview of the accomplishments of the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool in the cooperative marketing of their grain and livestock. The first booklet is titled “The Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and Its Accomplishments.”  These two items are in deteriorated condition, as they appear to have been water-damaged and are stuck together in a way in which the full booklet for 1948 can be seen and opened, but the second booklet’s cover is stuck to the first booklet’s back cover, making it impossible to read the second booklet’s cover and the year it was published. Printed by Modern Press of Saskatoon, SK. The pages inside both booklets are completely legible.
