Cabinets funded from the Haig Brown (1908-1976) endowment house a selection of the Harry Hawthorn Foundation collection of books on fly-fishing. The cabinets include 3 sets of hand tied flies, other fishing paraphernalia and five full-scale salmon carvings by Thomas Brayshaw (1886-1967) and one steelhead trout carving.
The Brayshaw salmon carvings feature Chinook, Chum, Pink, Sockeye, and Spring. Read more about Thomas Brayshaw in the University Archives
