Title: Autograph album with over 100 autographs of California government officials Author: Place: Sacramento, CA Publisher: Date: 1880 Description: [110] pp. 4¾x7½, cloth. Each page with autograph (on each side), of over 100 individuals. An unusual "who's who" in California state government, many autographs dated 1880. Containing 111 signatures of various government officials and legislators, many with decorative flourishes. The owner of the album, Miss Maggie Galligan, appears to have collected these signatures in March, 1880, when a newly elected government was just taking office (one page notes that she danced with the Clerk of the Senate Judiciary Committee at the governor's reception). The signatures include Governor George C. Perkins, other executive officeholders ranging from the Secretary of State to the State Librarian, and legislators and legislative staff from throughout the state, most identified by their district numbers and committee assignments. Maggie was an industrious young lady, collecting even the autographs of the Senate's night watchman and porter. Lot Amendments Condition: Moderate wear to spine ends and corners; cloth reinforcement at gutter edge of first leaf (containing the young lady's name); very good. Item number: 230441
