The types of buildings found in Dominion are common throughout Ontario and were inspired by the architecture and built environments of such Canadian cities as Hamilton and Kitchener, and towns like Dundas and Galt. Seth's work often inspires reflection on the history of communities and the people who have lived and worked there. We're hoping that Dominion will inspire you to think about Dundas and to share with us stories and memories of this unique town. Please use this booklet to add your own stories, thoughts and reminiscences about Dundas and its buildings and places (past and present) and the people and events related to them. We'd appreciate it if you'd consider leaving the booklet with us so we can read and share your stories. Over the years, our visitors have proven invaluable in our ability to record, understand and tell the histories of Dundas. Thank you for visiting Dominion in Dundas. 3 4 HeDominion is the designeris the elaborate, of the 25 ever volume expanding, series THE COMPLETEwork-in-progress PEANUTS of the and renowned the upcoming Canadian two volumecartoonist series Seth. on An Canadian imagined master place cartoonistcombining DOUGelements WRIGHT. of numerous early modern Canadian cities, Dominion captures the spirit of the As anDominion illustrator/hack he has produced booming small metropolis at a time of community commercial works for almost all of the major boosterism and growth that, to the contemporary CanadianDundas and American magazines. : Add His work has eye, can seem at times quaint and alien.
