James Lansdowne Pictures



This auction item includes three signed pictures by artist James Lansdowne. He was known for his pictures of birds. The pictures have greatly appreciated since his death.

James Lansdowne was a self-taught naturalist artist, who has shown similar style to the works of John James Audubon. He was born in Hong Kong and raised in British Columbia. The first showing of his works were at the Royal Ontario Museum in 1956.

The Canadian government presented his works to the British Royal Family in 1976. He also became an officer of the Order of Canada in that same year.

Check out this and all our other great auction items at Richmond Hill's collectibles and "gently used" re-sale shoppe, Treasures.

More Auction Items




In our Auction Display Case there is a set of commemorative coins with the images of the Prime Ministers. The coins come in a wooden display plaque. This is a beautiful set for the coin enthusiast.

Also, in time for the fishing season, a set of reels and a lure. One Driftor tackle lure and one Pro Staff reel with a box. Now with the warm weather here, it is a great time to head to cottage country for some rest and relaxation and maybe some fishing.

After being closed for a few days, it is nice to be back. We have received many new donations that will be in our Auction Display case; beautiful cups and saucer sets, pottery, figurines and pictures.

It pays to visit our store regularly due to the abundance of donations we receive daily. The displays change often, as well as the the merchandise available for sale. There are occasional surprise sales at Treasures on our already low, low prices. Check out Treasures for your everyday needs!

Tired of Retail Prices?

Tired of retail prices? Treasures has gently used clothes, some with designer labels. Let's face it - retail is overpriced and overhyped. We are always getting in GAP, American Eagle, Lacoste, Perry Ellis, Old Navy, and many other designer labels. But nothing lasts long, so check back regularly for all the new stock.

...not mention the fact that if it doesn't sell, it goes on sale at Treasures, at even further reduced prices.

Treasures is a charity and patronizing the store helps the community and the volunteers that man the store. Treasures also performs the service of recycling donations, and support many other charities in turn.
