Original Toronto Star caption: How edward could look. Toronto's statue of King Edward VII is shown in this composite photograph as it would appear if set up on the site in Queen's Park proposed by Mayor Dennison. It would stand on what is now a 40-foot-wide flower bed; which occupies the former site of a bandstand. The statue is now stored in three crates at waterfront.
