National Park vehicle license medallions

The Waskesiu Heritage Museum has two examples of medallions that were used as annual Park permits or vehicle licenses in the 1930s.  


They are metal representations of a beaver, the symbol of Canadian National Parks and were made to be attached to the front of the vehicle.


One year for Heritage Day, some vintage cars visited the Museum; one of the vehicles featured a medallion on its grill.  Nowadays, a plastic hang tag is used on the rear view mirror and often features a photo from the Park.
