The Prat Sisters: Free Spirits of the 1890s

May Rosina Prat's announcement of an exhibition and sale of hand bound books and decorative leather work at the Primrose Bindery, also a small exhibition of miniatures by Annie Louisa Prat, December 4, 5, and 6

As the announcement does not mention Minnie, the exhibition no doubt took place after her death in September 1901. May Rosina had announced an exhibition and sale of decorative work, as well as a small exhibition of hand-bound books by the late Minnie Sophia Prat, on December 4, 5, and 6, almost certainly in 1901. Since it is unlikely she had two exhibitions in the same month, the present announcement, also in December, likely dates from 1902.

Date: Probaby 1902
