The author studies certain graphs, called CPR graphs, associated with the automorphism group of an abstract regular polytope. This group has the structure of a C-group (a certain quotient of a Coxeter group with distinguished generators), and a CPR graph encodes a permutation representation of this C-group (hence the name ``CPR''). The paper establishes general properties of CPR graphs. Moreover, CPR graph techniques are used to construct regular polyhedra with alternating groups \(A_n\) as automorphism groups for every large enough \(n\).
