Through the Bithell story we see the cohesiveness of Montreal's English-speaking enclaves at the turn of the 20th century. Joseph Bithell's first store was located on Beaver Hall Hill at the outer edge of the "Square Mile," the home of Montreal's Anglophone elite who headed many of Canada's major businesses and institutions. His clientele most likely included many of the area's residents who, as Margaret Westley notes, preferred to “"shop at stores owned and operated by fellow Scots and Englishmen" and who's favourite past time included horse riding, horse driving, polo and frequenting the Montreal Hunt Club. The relocation of their various businesses across the city also reflected this cohesion as they tended to set up their shops in, or in close proximity to, these Anglophone enclaves. The story tells us about Montreal at a time when it was the industrial and commercial centre of Canada and from the perspective of skilled tradesmen who worked in what was quickly becoming a dying trade. The adoption of the automobile redefined personal transportation as its increasing popularity began reducing the need for horses and buggies and, consequently, the need for saddle and harness makers. In this way, the Bithells were part of an important aspect of Canada's economical, social and cultural history. [see ref. #1 Acquisition Proposal for additional info] - Fonction

The ovestitch wheel is used to set the stitches; i.e. after choosing a wheel to match the number of stitches per inch, it was run over them to iron out minor irregularities. - Technique
-
The collection shows the different tools used and hardware produced by the Bithell family. It also shows the type of diversification or mixture of production methods used to adapt to social and technological change that redefined a trade and an industry.
