NotesZephirin Chapeleau co-owned the firm of Chapeleau and Lamothe, a bookbindery and ecclesiastical bookshop in Montreal in the mid-nineteenth century, at least as early as 1844. The partnership was later dissolved, and Chapeleau and Lamothe subsequently ran their own establishments. After establishing his own business in 1848, Chapeleau appears to have had locations at 84/86 Notre-Dame and 112 Rue Notre-Dame. Later, Chapeleau established a partnership with Louis Labelle, with whom he operated as booksellers, editors and bookbinders, and importers of French religious articles. The firm of Z. Chapeleau and LaBelle had premises at 174/175 Rue Notre-Dame and operated until at least 1886, serving clients in both Canada and the United States. Although little is know about Zephirin Chapeleau, it appears that he was a Justice of the Peace for the city of Montreal in 1885, according to 'Lovell's Montreal Directory for 1885-86', and was 2nd vice president of the L'Union of St. Joseph de Montreal in 1857. A copy of this bookseller's ticket, as well as another version of the bookseller's ticket in English, is also available in the Philippe Masson Ex Libris Collection at McGill University.
