The first owner of this 1932 house in the Tuxedo area of Winnipeg was Albert J. Smale, who purchased it from the builder, Frank R. Lount and Son. Smale was Vice President and Sales Manager for Donald H. Bain Limited, wholesale grocers. This company distributed to all of western Canada. The details include Tudor half-timbering with the romantic ruin effect in the stone work by the door and up the chimney.
