"The illustrated artifacts contained within this catalogue are original reprodu…ctions from the material culture of the Canadian Inuit. Though the source of the material is predominantly that of Pelly Bay, the Eastern, Central and Western Arctic regions are also represented. The unique qualities that permitted the Inuit people to develop a material culture from nothing other than stone and the bones of animals, and the awareness that these inherent skills are disappearing, prompted Father Van de Velde to record for posterity such detailed information as is still available on the tools and weapons once used in their daily lives. A project involving the reproduction of historical artifacts from living memory, is by its nature an ephemeral one. But while there still live these men and women who have experienced the traditional way of Inuit life, it provides both income for the senior citizens and an opportunity for those in the anthropological field, to supplement or establish collections from the Inuit material culture." - Eric Mitchell in his preface.
