Exhibition catalogue 1976 — Craft Gallery of the Ontario Crafts Council, Toronto
The exhibit list runs in three columns — craftsman, articles, price — with one number to each article, so a craftsman named once carries every entry beneath the name; it is set out that way here. Two entries name two articles and two prices on one line, entry 12 and entry 21, and are left as the sheet has them.

The Canadian Society for Creative Leathercraft was founded in 1950 to provide guidance in improving the quality of leathercraft in Canada and in creating original design. Membership for the past year was 206 including members from coast to coast in Canada and several members from U.S.A.
The Society encourages the formation of local branch guilds anywhere in Canada. At present Branches exist in Barrie, Belleville, Hamilton, Toronto and Woodstock. The branch competition for the Weston Trophy is a major event at the Annual Meeting. A graded system of membership gives the general members an opportunity to become Associates and later Fellows. The Council of Fellows judge the work for sales, exhibitions and competitions. Members receive a quarterly bulletin called Canadian Leathercraft.
C.S.C.L. is affiliated with the Ontario Crafts Council, formerly Can. Guild of Crafts & Ont.'Craft Found. Since 1964 C.S.C.L. has participated in the Arts, Crafts and Hobbies Show at the C.N.E. with an exhibition,sales and demonstrations.
The chief objectives of the society are:
- to improve the statusof leathercraft by raising standards of design and craftsmanship.
- to help anyone interested in any phase of the craft.
- to raise standards of teaching and judging.
- to conduct sales and exhibitions.
- to co-operate with the other services in furthering crafts.
- to supply teachers, demonstrators and adjudicators upon request.
