All of these historical documents and autograhs that I am listing came out of a 19th century scrapbook that I purchased about 30 years ago. I am finally getting around to removing many of the items which includes numerous historical autographs, and paper ephemera. I have not authenticated any of these but some have information on them which will give you information on age. If you’re interested in historical paper, autographs etc please bookmark my site as I have a lot more to list.
