St. Andrews collection
Fonds - 1889, [1911?]
P23
The majority of these photographs come from a book entitled, “St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada: A Photographic Souvenir, July 1889.” The photographer or photographers are unidentified.
It is probable that this book is the work of D. Will McKay (MacKay). McKay was certainly taking photographs in St. Andrews at the time (see Will McKay Fonds - P682). PANB holds a book of photogravures of St. Stephen which McKay published through the Albertype Co. (N.Y.) in 1896 (MC80/4025), and the N.B. Legislative Library holds a copy of his 1896 book of St. Andrews photogravures, also published by Albertype Co. (917.1533 M153). This confirms that D. Will McKay was in the business of making photographic souvenir books in the last decade of the nineteenth century. These two books were reproduced in half-tone, with some variation in page order, by Print’N Press Ltd., out of St. Stephen, N.B. sometime around 1980. PANB holds both reproductions (MC80/3074, MC80/3075).
There is a photograph (P23-08)...
Street scene in St. Andrews; wagons, people, cars, and buildings decorated for the 1911 visit of Prince Arthur
Item - 1911
P23\23
In this photo, Saint Andrews is decorated for the arrival of Prince Arthur, the Duke of Connaught and the tenth Governor General of Canada. His visit marked the opening of the Prince Arthur School which operated until the 1960's.
the original photograph is held in the Charlotte County Archives and is embossed with the photographer's name: D. Will McKay. So, although the photograph is from a later date than the rest of the P23 collection, it was taken by the same photographer.
Danny Johnson collection
Fonds - [ca. 1895]-[ca. 1966]
P29
Because of his childhood in Perth-Andover, his work for various institutions in Victoria County and books, projects, and essays about the area and its history, it is highly possible that Danny Johnson (Daniel F. Johnson 1953-2005) bought or collected these photographs, and then donated them to PANB in the early years of the archives.
