NC912 Pagoda Restaurant and neon sign, Langley 1962
City of Surrey archivist Chelsea Bailey presented photographs to our society members that were taken by Neville Curtis (1892 – 1969). Curtis freelanced with newspapers in Vancouver, New Westminster, Surrey and the Langley Advance from the 1940s into the 1960s. His family also owned and operated a grocery store in Cloverdale and Neville took over the store from his father. The Curtis collection of almost 5,000 negatives was donated to City of Surrey Archives by Neville’s wife, Amanda Curtis.
