1992.139.001

A very small book that almost appears to be a children’s book based on the illustrations of flowers and cherubs on most of its pages as well as the inside cover. In reality, it is an autograph book, with the words “Keepsake” written over an illustration of a glistening eye on the front cover. Despite this fact, the book is mostly devoid of autographs outside of a few names and dates in the very beginning and very back of the book, leaving the middle section mostly blank. The book is dated 1882 and each day of the year is counted by a page in the book.

Very small, beige, rectangular book with illustrations on the front and back cover and almost every page
