1984 THIS HOLINESS POPE JOHN PAUL II, Commemorative Portrait Plate of His Canada Visit...Made by Regency English Bone China. A visually stunning plate of white with an official colour-tinted photograph of the Pope taken while he was visiting Canada in 1984, complete with scalloped edges trimmed in gold. Guaranteed no chips, no cracks, but the slightest light scuff mark on the Popes cheek. Made in England.
DID YOU KNOW? In 1984, Pope John Paul II became the first Pope to set foot on Canadian soil, when the papal aircraft landed at the airport in Quebec City. Already an accomplished traveller, the Pope was on his 24th pilgrimage (after that he was on over 100 worldwide). Wherever he went during his 12-day cross-Canada visit, great crowds flocked to him.
