Original Toronto Star caption: Indian house post restored; Restorer Bernard Leech works on recently acquired house post at McMichael Gallery in Kleinburg. Carved from western red cedar - and of Kwakiutl Indian origin - this post and a partner would have been used to support a main beam in a large house. Carved figures have significance similar to those on totem poles.
