Royal Canadian Navy Certificate of Acknowledgement

This certificate, created by Alan Beddoe, acknowledges the contribution of the T. Eaton Company to the success of the show "Meet the Navy."

Costumes and many of the other materials used to present "Meet the Navy" were donated by a variety of people and organizations, including Eaton's. Beddoe, who had a strong interest in heraldry, designed badges for Canadian ships and naval shore establishments as part of his duties. He is perhaps best known for his supervision of the illumination and lettering of Canada's Books of Remembrance for both world wars.
