"From the boundary of Manitoba north to Lake Winnipeg, a distance of one hundred miles, runs an historic highway, which, as it passes through the City of Winnipeg, is known as Main Street. A buffalo trail, an Indian pathway, it saw later explorers, merchant adventurers, missionaries, soldiers and lawgivers, who crossed it on their way westward. It felt the surge of every tide of settlement. Here the mystery of the West was glimpsed. Here its spirit was felt, its music heard."

An illustrated history of Manitoba and Winnipeg's "Main Street" highway, told in verse. Each page has an accompanying illustration. Topics and illustrations include bison [buffalo]; Indigenous peoples; voyageurs; missions and missionaries; settlers; soldiers and historic battles; farmsteads; immigrants and immigration; religion; and the railway.

Parte de Dorothy Livesay archives

This series consists of approximately 1,470 poems, which are represented as typescripts and/or manuscripts. File titles within this series reflect the arrangement of poems, which are grouped together based on the year and time frame in which those poems were written or, in the case of poems with no recorded date, the year and alphabetical span of those poems.
While nearly all of the poems are typescript, most poems in this series are in both typescript (ts) and manuscripts (ms) form. Many poems have multiple typescript copies and some have multiple manuscript copies. It is not clear whether Livesay herself created the typescripts, but many have handwritten notes, edits, or signatures from Livesay. When there is one or more typescript and one or more manuscript of a single poem, the materials are arranged together (ts/ms). Rarely, two different poems are written on one manuscript and therefore not all manuscript poems are arranged with their respective typescript.
This series also consists of clippings and photocopies of published poems (p), which are arranged with the typescript and/or manuscript of the same poem.

Map produced by the Bell Telephone Co. of Canada Ltd., showing long distance and rural telephone lines in Winnipeg in 1906, with Icelandic writing [possible draft of poem or letter] on map's verso signed "Stephan G. Stephansson" [a well-known Icelandic-Canadian poet].

The map is titled "Northwest Department Long Distance and Rural Lines in the Province of Manitoba In Operation and In Course of Construction 1906" and shows the system of telephone lines connecting various communities in Manitoba to Saskatchewan and to United States points. The map was created by Herbert H. New.

Stephansson's writing does not appear to be titled, possibly because it begins in the middle of the piece [breaks in the text are numbered, and the text begins with 3 and ends with 9 - numbers 1 and 2 are not present]. The panels with writing on them are numbered 2-4, written at the bottom of each panel.
