This autograph book dates back to at least 1879 and contains ten autographs. If you've never seen 19th-century autographs they're a sight to behold. Far from a hastilly written scrawl of a name, these are works of art, with beautifully done calligraphy and elaborate decoration. In the interest of preserving these autographs, I've scanned them and am making these images available to the public. Each image is available in both 100 dpi and 300 dpi versions. Scans in higher resolutions in lossless PNG format are also available, but are too large to host here. Contact me if you have need of them.
