My guess is that the photos would have been taken in 1964-65 or thereabouts -- I think that's where the RCAF's Lancasters went after they were retired in April, 1964. I know that at least two survivors came from there -- FM213 was put on a pole in Goderich, and ultimately restored to fly by CWH, while FM212 was put on a barge at Port Maitland and barged to Windsor, where it is still on display. Some of the other Lancasters on display probably came from Dunnville too.
