This photo, from the Toronto Archives (Fonds 16, Series 836, Subseries 4, File 46), shows the collectors' booth at Islington station, circa 1972. Thanks to Nathan Ng for finding this photo. He writes, "Note the commemorative photo display, visible to the left, no longer hanging at Islington. Also note the luggage roller gate (Union wasn't the only station with one of these) that has been put in. The installation was the first in the system, and was meant to assist passengers with luggage after they arrived at the station from the airport express bus, which operated in the early 70s between Islington and the Toronto International Airport." The information on the luggage roller came from the TTC's _Coupler_, December 1971.
