A love of grain elevators started at a young age for 91-year-old Einar Franson, but the passion continues to this day. Now that he s moving, he s giving away his replicas of the iconic prairie towers.
Modelled after elevators that existed in Saskatchewan and Alberta between the 1800s and the 1950s, the replicas are crafted to scale usually at an inch to the foot and each took about 150 to 200 hours of labour.
