It was just a few days before the Pasadena, California, Dog Show, in February, 1937, when Miss Crandall was photographed holding Bandit of Cote de Neige.

Bandit was owned by Mr and Mrs Barton Sewell, who recently acquired Bandit from Marjorie Butcher. Bandit was considered the "first specimen of the breed ever to be exhibited in Southern California".

Bandit was awarded Best Of Breed in uncontested competition by Judge Anton Korbel.
