I have in my possession one pink, gilt edged, small souvenier mug with picture of "Asylum for Idiots" Orillia, Ontario. I am curious if there are any other ones available that I might consider purchasing.

My father was taken here at 5 years old approximately 1920. his name was Walter Wilkinson and I am wondering if you have record of this?
He later worked on the farm in Orillia and he was not allowed to leave until he was 21 years old.
His brother Wilfred and sister Evelyn were taken as well,and worked on the farm.
Any information about his history there would be appreciated.
Regards Susan
