Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Sampling the fun: Fairgoers waiting to enter the Queen Elizabeth Building at Exhibition Place for Britannia '86 are entertained by Sidney Burstoff, 59, Canada's only Pearly King. His suit is decorated with 6,941 pearly buttons. The original Pearly Kings of the 1980s protected London street vendors from vandals, Burst-off explained. The three-day fair ends tonight.
