Truly evocative pictures. The buildings were a part of Toronto's skyline, highly visible from the windows of the local commuter trains.

Note one of the pictures which you posted, with the girl holding a Browning Hi-Power (no ear protection!). The wooden stock depicted therein commands a higher price than an original "T" Hi-Power!

That 9MM with shoulder stock/holster was probably part of the "Chinese Contract" ones made for Chang Chi Check(?) in '44-'45 when he was at war with Mao TSE tung(?) ..
I had a nice one that I donated to a military museum..
Clive could jump in and tell us the story on them...He is the expert on them..
