Looking for info on this Hudson Bay Emblem Parka
- Thread starter Bobojen
- Start date
Can you please also show us the actual label.
I can't be certain but I wonder if this may have been issued in 1967 to commemorate the Centennial (100th Anniversary) of the Canadian Confederation.

Unfortunately the CA number on the label does not help very much as it dates it to 1997 which is when Canada digitalized the company numbers and many items were actually pre that date. It is however a bilingual Hudson's Bay label which would date it to 1970 or later.

another clue would be when that version of the Pure Virgin Wool label was introduced...I believe these were introduced in the 1970s but I'm uncertain.
In 1999 Canada added another territory which is not included here.
We cannot assist you on values here, you would need to look around the web on ebay, etsy or private websites to get a feel for what these are going for.
- Bilingual labels were introduced in 1970, so my theory of 1967 would be incorrect now that I see the actual label.

It's a registration number.
