Donated By: McLagan Phonograph Corporation
First Presented: 1929
Criteria: Best or Most Promising Vocalist - Senior Level

The McLagan Phonograph Corporation (1921-1929) was a part of the larger McLagan Furniture Factory located at 83 Trinity Street. The McLagan Furniture Factory employed 200 men. It was the second largest industry in Stratford, next to the Grand Trunk Railway repair shops and one of the largest furniture manufacturers in Canada.

Mr. McLagan was a generous supporter of the local community, in particular the park system. Mrs. McLagan and her daughter were loyal financial supporters of the Musical Festival. In 1929, the McLagan Phonograph Corporation donated the McLagan Rose Bowl for the top Female Vocalist in the Trophy Class. It is one of the two oldest in the collection (the other being the St. Marys Trophy).
