        Loose on shelf:

        A tissue-wrapped bundle of materials used in an exhibit mounted at Bata Library, Trent University, 2013. Titled “Moccasin Mania: a two-part exhibit: Magnetic Moccasins & Moccasin Madness, October 21 – November 3, 2013”, the exhibit included 51 cardstock posters (each 31 cm x 40.5 cam) comprised of introductory labels and ca. 50 photographs, plus separate card labels for each photograph. Some of the photographs were taken by Madill who documented the people and places he encountered on his journeys into northern Canada; others are duplicates depicting contemporary moccasins from other archives; others were taken by Marisa Scigliano who captured the “craze for modern-day moccasins” at Trent University.

        2 outsized posters, titled:
        • “Moccasin Madness: a frenzy of photographs taken on campus one autumn day, inspired by the R. Glenn Madill aboriginal moccasin collection”
