ATLANTIC PROVINCES HISTORY
CATALOGUE 100
Welcome to Atlantic Provinces Catalogue #100. It’s been 35 years since we published Cat #1- a
total of 131 entries. Some of the titles we would dearly love to see again, others not so much.
Times have certainly changed since the Fall of ‘77, our first catalogue was typed up by a friend. I
think she charged us $2.00. We assembled it ourselves in the backroom. We just want to thank
all our customers & colleagues, past & present who supported us over the last 35 years. But
don’t think we’re going out of business- not a chance of that! More catalogues to follow.

Each limited edition copy of this book has one original signed colour print, titled 'Christmas Eve at 12 O'Clock' and measures 8 x
9.20 inches. It was printed by the artist at his studio and at Sir Wilfred Grenfell College on Lanaprime paper and was
commissioned especially for this edition. The title, signature, date and limitation number are in pencil on the bottom margin. This
print can be consider one of Christopher Pratt's better work on paper and has been nicely framed in a double mat with a thin black
frame. John Christopher Pratt was born on 9th of December 1935 in St. John's Newfoundland. He moved to New Brunswick in
1953 to attend Mount Allison University, where he met his future wife, the artist Mary West. They married in 1957. Pratt was
appointed curator of the Memorial University Art Gallery in St. John's in 1961, a position he held for two and a half years. In 1973,
he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada and was promoted to Companion in 1983. In 1980, he designed the flag of
Newfoundland and Labrador. Pratt's work is found in many public collections including the Art Gallery of Ontario, the National
Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, the Vancouver Art Gallery, the Musée d'art contemporain in Montreal, The Rooms, and the Art
Gallery of Nova Scotia.
