All of these historical documents, autographs and ephemera that I am listing came out of a 19th century scrapbook that I purchased about 30 years ago.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.


This auction is for a carte de visite of the Pacific Insurance Company building located in California Street in San Francisco. Card measures about 2 1/2” by 4”. Some remnants of the scrapbook paper remain on the reverse. Some waviness to side view, but lay flat if mounted.


Domestic US shipping is $ 5.00 via US Postal Service ground advantage mail. International shipping via eBay’s international shipping program. Payment expected at conclusion of sale. Will combine multiple items to save on shipping when practical
