19th century album, British, 8vo, containing numerous hand-writing samples, signatures, sermon excerpts, or letters, primarily written by prominent English clergymen. Some facsimiles are also present, along with one photograph, a small calling card (laid in) and similar. Most are mounted onto the album leaves, and many are captioned and/or identified on the album leaf in manuscript. Some of the writing samples and signatures include Francis Blackburne, Rev. John Hall, Theophilus Lindsey, George Anthony Denison, and others (similar.) Approximately 34 album leaves with contents attached, some evidence of several leaves removed in places. Album bound in full morocco, lettered in gilt.

Hinges cracked but boards holding, binding rather worn. Contents with some light soiling in places and occasional light foxing. As-is.
