Beautifully printed certificate from the Bytown Inn Limited issued from 1949 - 1973. This historic document has an
ornate border around it with a vignette an allegorical woman holding a light in front of a generator and building. This item has the hand signatures of the Company’s President ( T. L. Brighham ) and its Secretary. The Bytown Inn was probably the oldest hostelry in Ottawa. It was something of a landmark, if not a monument of the city. It was quaint to say the least.
