Publicity agent for more than thirty years, Félix Barrière worked for several years in the organization of the Association des Marchands Détaillants (Retail Merchants Association) as organizer and assistant secretary-general. He then went to the United States, where he became managing director of the daily newspaper, L'Écho of New Bedford. In 1917, upon entry into the war the United States, Mr. Barrière returned to Montreal and took charge of the newspaper's Le Prix Courant which he directed until 1920, when he purchased various publications including: Annuaire secret des téléphones (the secret phone directory), Handy Phone Index, the Canadian Medical directory, the Album of the Churches and the Album of education Houses of the Province of Quebec. The collection covers the photographs assembled by Félix Barrière as part of his work as a publicist. It mainly contains photographs of churches in Montreal and various cities in Quebec. We also find shops photographs and neighborhood grocery stores in Montreal. The collection finally contains mostly portraits of religious.
