A plaque adhered to the sink reads: "This dry sink was the first piece produced by Simmons Limited for The Early Canadiana Collection and presented to the Hudson's Bay Company - September 13th, 1979." According to an ad in the Spring 1975 Beaver magazine: "thirty-five reproductions of early Canadian furniture are crafted in pine with the same care to detail and finish which made the originals valuable." This furniture collection was available exclusively at The Bay.
