The James Bay Treaty - Treaty No. 9 - Page Banner

Created on vellum, with hand-drawn calligraphy, the Treaty shows the scars of being folded, packed, and portaged during the two summers required for its signing. While over a century old, the James Bay Treaty is a living document which is still being interpreted today.
