<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">On October 19</span><sup>th</sup><span style="font-size: 12pt;">, the
California Historical Society, along with the Labor Archives and Research
Center, will host ten institutions for the third annual San Francisco Archives
Crawl. The theme is “The Histories of California in 10 Objects.” We’ve selected
ten objects from the CHS Collection, spanning the years 1671 to 1978, to
represent the history—and mythology—of California. These objects tell complex stories
of exploration and conquest, the California Gold Rush, Chinese immigration,
civil rights struggles, spiritualism and women’s suffrage, and utopian/dystopian
communities.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">One of the featured objects is
this unusual and amusing Gold Rush Era daguerreotype, depicting a pile of beautiful,
carefully staged potatoes. CHS has a significant collection of daguerreotype
photographs, which were recently cataloged by archivist Jaime Henderson. (See
the online finding aid </span><a href="https://oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/c8th8tkq/"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">here</span></a><span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;"> for
a detailed listing.) The collection includes images of Gold Rush immigrants,
mining towns and scenes, women, children, and families, and mourning photographs.
In a time of great social dislocation, daguerreotype photographs were exchanged
as objects of sentiment and memory. The purpose of this image is unclear. Was
the picture taken to memorialize an immigrant’s first potato crop? Was it sent
back home, or kept by the farmer as a token? Is the picture deliberately
irreverent, a sort of joke about the sanctity of photography, or was it meant
to be taken seriously? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> For this year’s Archives Crawl theme, “California History in 10 Objects”, the Archives of the Archdiocese of San Francisco will feature items highlighting different periods of the Archdiocese’s history including the settlement of Catholic pioneers during the wake of the Gold Rush, Japanese-American Catholics’ experience during World War II, the Archdiocese’s response to social justice concerns of the 1960s, and its ministries and advoc</span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">acy efforts during San Francisco’s Sanctuary City movement. </span></span></div>

The resolution includes language praising Archbishop Riordan's support for the Suffrage Movement at a time when the Association heard “our adversaries within and without the Church were attacking us with bitter words”, and it cites examples of his public statements and actions done on behalf of the cause. Archbishop Riordan seemed to understand the political advantages that came with supporting the enfranchisement of women when, according to the resolution, he encouraged the Society of Catholic Women to organize votes against the controversial San Francisco city ordinance to remove its cemeteries, which was a significant issue of concern during the time of his episcopacy.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The suffragists’ resolution sheds an interesting historical light on the clerical role of a Catholic bishop, and it is one of several examples demonstrating the kind of influence the Catholic Church in San Francisco and its Archbishop had on the lives of local citizens, both Catholic and non-Catholic alike. </span></div>

The Labor Archives and Research Center (LARC) at San Francisco State University will be a host site for the San Francisco Archives Crawl 2019. LARC
documents the history of the Bay Area’s working people and unions.
Established in 1985 through a collaborative effort of historians, labor leaders
and academics, the Archives preserves and promotes the region’s rich working class
history.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />

The intersection of race and gender with the struggle for economic justice is represented throughout the collection. Records in the Archives include
material from unions representing hotel and restaurant workers; early garment
worker organizing; workers in the longshore, trucking and warehouse industries;
service employees in healthcare and the public sector; faculty and staff in higher
education; construction trades; retail and grocery workers; newspaper and
printing trades; clerical workers; and exotic dancers. LARC also holds material
from labor-related organizations such as the depression-era Maritime Federation
of the Pacific; California Labor School (cultural hub for the Bay Area’s
progressive and labor communities during the 1940s-1950s); <span style="color: black;">Committee for Support of International Trade Union Rights
(solidarity efforts related to ending apartheid and the wars in Central
America);</span> the California Agricultural Labor Relations Board; Northern
California Conference of the United Church of Christ (United Farm Worker
organizing support); San Francisco chapter of the Friends of the Abraham Lincoln
Brigade; and feminist labor groups Union W.A.G.E. and Tradeswomen.<br />
<br />
The Labor Archives also has over 10,000 photographs, several thousand union
and social movement posters, buttons and badges, as well as early 20<sup>th</sup>
century union banners. LARC’s oral history project contains dozens of
interviews documenting Golden Gate Bridge workers, LGBT labor activists, 2004
strike/lockout of UNITE HERE Local 2 hotel workers, faculty leaders of the
1968-1969 San Francisco State Strike, women breaking the gender line in non-traditional
work, and Bay Area union and civil rights leaders.<br />

Scrapbook</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">.
This scrapbook is a compelling personal look into the construction of one of
the world’s most iconic landmarks and the human cost of construction before the
advent of worker safety laws. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fred Dummatzen
was a member of Laborer’s Union No. 261 and was one of ten men killed in an
accident on February 17, 1937. The album, which was partially compiled after
Dummatzen's death, includes snapshots taken by Dummatzen and his fellow workers
of the bridge under construction, offering an intimate window into male worker
culture. There are also clippings, photographs and poems in honor of Dummatzen
and a heartbreaking image of Fred’s parents holding a news article about the
accident. Fred’s family donated the scrapbook during the Golden Gate Bridge 50<sup>th</sup>
anniversary celebrations held by LARC in 1987. </span></div>

Scrapbook</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">.
Like the Dummatzen album, the Sue Ko Lee scrapbook offers a compelling personal
story, this one focused on the fight against runaway sweatshops and the
exploitation of immigrant women workers. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In
1938, Sue Ko Lee and her co-workers at the National Dollar Store factory organized
the Chinese Ladies Garment Workers Union Local 361. Protesting low wages, they went
on strike for 105 days and eventually won a good contract. A year later the
company closed the factory rather than be unionized. Despite this loss, the
strike was critical in helping to break down racial barriers in San Francisco.
After the factory shut down, the union helped find the workers jobs outside of
Chinatown, in what had previously been white-only shops. The strike also led to
Chinese workers taking leadership roles in the union – Sue Ko Lee became a
business agent then secretary of the union local.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her scrapbook was donated through the help of
author Judy Yung, whose publications on Chinese women in San Francisco <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Unbound Voices</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Unbound Feet</i> feature chapters on the strike. The scrapbook </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">contains photographs,

These records span more than a century, 1890-2014, and contain primary source materials such as correspondence, reports, specifications, drawings, photographs, models, and artifacts. Though the archives' primary focus is the San Francisco Bay Area, designers and projects from throughout California, the United States, and the world are found in the collections. </p>
<p>William W. Wurster founded the Environmental Design Archives (then the Architectural Archives) in 1953 as a teaching collection, following the recommendation of eminent architectural historian Henry Russell Hitchcock. The personal papers and project records of Bernard Maybeck comprised the inaugural donation. In 1973 the Department of Landscape Architecture combined its collections with the Architectural Archives prompting the College of Environmental Design to adopt the name "Documents Collection." The collection became the Environmental Design Archives in 1999 in response to the establishment of a formal archival program. The Archives has become Northern California's premier collection of historic architecture and landscape architecture records.</p>
<p>Since its founding, the Archives has been directed or supported by faculty members. Architect Kenneth Cardwell (1953-1972) was initially responsible for managing the archives followed by Architectural Historian Stephen Tobriner (1973-2003). Designer/ author Marc Treib (2004-2014) served as the Faculty Curator following the establishment of the EDA by Curator Waverly B. Lowell (1998-2018) the first professional archivist.</p>
<p>Equally integral to the Archives are holdings in American and English landscape architecture. This element of the collection originates with the donation of Beatrix Jones Farrand's Reef Point Library to the Landscape Department in the 1950s. The donation included Farrand's own project records, the garden plans of English landscape architect Gertrude Jekyll, and the records of 'Garden Architect' Mary Rutherfurd Jay. The Archives also contains the records of the founders and practitioners of the modern California landscape such as Thomas D. Church, Garrett Eckbo, Douglas Baylis, Robert Royston/RHAA, and Geraldine Knight Scott. The “next generation” of landscape designers such as Richard Vignolo, Casey Kawamoto, Jack Stafford, Theodore Osmundson, and Walter Guthrie are also held by the Archives. </p>
<p>At this year's Archives Crawl the EDA will showcase some of the most well-known architects of the Bay Area over the last 100 years such as Bernard Maybeck, John Galen Howard, Willis Polk, and more! We will be showing facsimiles of some of our favorite drawings of the San Francisco/Bay Area which include several BART stations, the Levi Strauss Building, the Palace of Fine Arts, the International Building, and the Golden Gate Bridge to name a few. We look forward to seeing you there and sharing our collections with you! </p>

Our holdings total over 77,000 cubic feet of historical records dating from the 1850s to the 2000s, created by more than 100 Federal agencies and courts in northern and central California, Nevada (except for Clark County), Hawaii, Guam, American Samoa and the American Territories.<br />

Our holdings are a major primary resource for the study of Asian-Pacific immigration, environmental and natural history, naval and military activity in the Pacific, the Native American experience, and many other aspects of United States history. Famous documents include after-action reports following the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Alcatraz inmate case file of Alphonse “Al” Capone, the immigration case file of Sun Yat-sen, and Federal court cases on the constitutionality of internment during World War II.<br />
<br />
One especially useful record for historians and genealogists are the Alien Files or “A Files.” Because of strong interest and advocacy for the A files by local research communities and their congressional representatives, the National Archives at San Francisco holds many A Files controlled by INS district offices located in San Francisco and Honolulu. <br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
Created by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) beginning in 1944, A Files contain all records of any active case of an alien not yet naturalized as they passed through the United States immigration and inspection process. An A File might also be created without any action taken by the alien; for example, if the INS initiated a law enforcement action against or involving the alien. </div>

A rich source of biographical information, A Files may include visas, photographs, affidavits, and correspondence leading up to an alien's naturalization, permanent residency, or deportation. Early A Files contain the Alien Registration Form (Form AR 2) which provides the name, address, date/place of birth, physical description, occupation, employer, and a statement of military service of the alien. </div>
<div style="border-image: none;">

Some A Files contain records consolidated from the older immigration case file series currently open for public research at the National Archives at San Francisco. The quantity and type of information vary significantly between individual files.</div>

SF Archives Crawl, October 19<sup>th</sup>, 2019 from 1-5pm will feature 10
items from the Sutro related to our library’s founder, California entrepreneur
and philanthropist, Adolph Sutro. Among the items featured will be two volumes
of photographs of Sutro Heights, created by famed California photographer, Isaiah
West Taber. The images show the extensive 20 acre garden at Sutro Heights. This
massive property had a full time staff of 17 to tend to the flower beds, hedge
mazes, and other flora. The album also features views of the terraces
overlooking the Pacific and some of the 200 replicas of Greek and Roman
statuary that were imported by Sutro, apparently to expose visitors to European
culture. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Adolph Sutro
encouraged San Franciscans to come out and use the park. The sign at the front
entrance (see below) gave the basic rules for visiting. At one point, Sutro
Heights was offered up as a permanent public park to San Francisco on the
stipulation that the Pacific Railroad would agree to a single fare trip from
downtown out to the ‘Heights.’ At the time, municipal rails were owned by the railroads
and the trip required a transfer which was not free. They declined, and Sutro
built his own train. It opened in 1895.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Heights was a busy park in its heyday with thousands of San Franciscans enjoying
the gardens, the Cliff House, and the Sutro Baths. Just outside the entrance to
Sutro Heights was the Ocean and Park railroad. Colorful descriptions of
inebriated passengers causing trouble abound. One article talks about three men
who had too much to drink, one of them deliberately kicking a woman waiting at
a stop. The incident almost caused a mob to enact their own justice against the
offender, if not for the intervention of the police. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Call</i> describes a busy scene from Sutro Heights in 1896 in which
a Captain Thompson and his men had to keep “pedestrians, cyclists and
horse-vehicles from becoming disastrously mixed up.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Visitors
were attracted to the heights for many things: the gardens, the views of the
Pacific, and the conservatory. They were also attracted to other novelties at
the Heights, one of which was certainly Sutro’s pet monkeys. His favorite, Jack,
was allowed to roam free at Sutro Heights until his mischievous behavior caused
him to be locked up. As one report describes, Jack “would follow the gardeners
and tear up plants they had put down, steal and hide things.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One day he decided to steal a rooster, took it
up high into a tree, and plucked out every feather with exception of the tail
feathers. On the upside, Jack did adopt and care for a sick kitten.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A May 8,
1886 piece in the Pacific Rural Press talks about other ideas that Sutro had in
mind for the Heights. Specifically, he had a “plan to construct a fine building
according to his own designs which [would] contain the library and abundant
room and conveniences for those who desire to pursue special studies and
investigations.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In 1895, Sutro
closed his townhouse at the corner of Hayes and Fillmore and moved permanently
with his children to the Heights. His final days were spent with his daughter
Dr. Emma Sutro Merritt who was given power of attorney. Her sister Clara was so
upset with Emma’s removal of Sutro from Sutro Heights that she tried to spook
the horses on the ambulance transport which was moving him out to Emma’s home.
Sutro was apparently not cogent and in need of more care than could be provided
at the Heights. This family disagreement and his will caused disruptions in the
family after the death of Adolph Sutro in 1898.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The <a href="https://sfpl.org/index.php?pg=0200002501" target="_blank">San Francisco History Center</a> of the San Francisco Public Library is the archives for the City and County of San Francisco. Formed in 1964 as the Californiana Collection, the current San Francisco History Center holds a comprehensive, non-circulating research collection covering all aspects of San Francisco history (and, to a lesser extent, California and Western history) from the time of the area's earliest habitation to the present day. The material sheds light on many aspects of the City's history: its geography and architecture; its politics and government; the lives of citizens, both prominent and ordinary; and, the contributions of ethnic, cultural and social groups in creating the City's vibrant character.<br />
<br />
The mission of the San Francisco History Center is to illuminate the founding, growth and development of the City by providing primary and secondary resources. <br />
Located on the 6th floor of the Main Library, the Center serves all library users and levels of interest, from the merely curious to those engaging in scholarly research.<br />
<br />
In keeping with the theme of Im(migration) and Indigenous Voice of California, the San Francisco History Center will be sharing resources from several collections, which include<a href="http://sfhcbasc.blogspot.com/2010/10/paul-radin-papers.html" target="_blank"> Paul Radin Papers</a> (SFH 23), Alien Enemy Registration Affidavits, 1918 (SFH 48), <a href="https://oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/c8p27165/" target="_blank">Maxine Gonong Papers</a> (SFH 59).<br />
<br />
For this post, the spotlight is on the <a href="https://oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/kt0k40349p/" target="_blank">Alien Enemy Registration Affidavits</a>.<br />

On November 16, 1917, all males in the United States older than 14 who were "natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects" of the German Empire were required to register as alien enemies. In 1918, an act of Congress included women aged 14 and older. The U.S. Attorney-General requested that the San Francisco Police Department administer the regulations under the general supervision and direction of the United States Department of Justice. Registration affidavits were filed at police district stations. Then each district sent its collected registration affidavits along with a summary sheet to the Chief Registrar. Each "alien enemy" was issued a registration card with photograph and identifying information, which he was required to have on his person at all times. He also needed permission from the<br />
local registrar to travel or change place of residence. Certain areas were <br />
also off-limit zones as deemed by the military. The Armistice was declared on November 11, 1918, and all regulations on enemy aliens were lifted December 25, 1918.<br />

On October 13, we will host guests from all over the Bay Area, excited to see collections related to the theme, Immigration and Indigenous Voices of California. So how can you best enjoy the Crawl. Here are some tips for your day:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Take Public Transportation from location to location, or walk if you can.</b> The night before, review travel and public transportation routes to ensure you get to each location, or the one of your choice on time!</li>
<li><b>Talk to the archivists and librarians!</b> Each one has immense expertise and wants to share facts and histories behind what they are showing.</li>
<li><b>Ask an archivist what you can hold, take photos of, or just look at.</b> Some of the collections at the Crawl will be fragile, and many will be 50, 100, or 100+ years old. Remember to be careful with what you do touch since we want to ensure that guests years from now can experience these powerful items.</li>
<li><b>Have fun!</b></li>

Bradley & Rulofson, San Francisco.<br />Albumen Print<br /><br /><br />The many women members of the Association of Pioneer Women, whose stories and ancestors were preserved in their "History Book", have nearly no visual records of who they were. A few of the women we found an image for in our photography files, but for the most part - nothing was found.<br />But, in our photography collection, there are many women of which we have photographs, but no names.<br /><br />The top photograph shows an Indian woman, described as a squaw - therefore a wife, or just a woman - but no name was assigned to her photograph. Photographers Lawrence and Houseworth took photographs all over California during the years between 1860 and 1870. Their photographs of cities, streets, mountains, rivers and gold mining towns were all identified - but Indian women were not.<br /><br />The bottom photograph, of Mrs. Chas.McLaughlin, is not exactly anonymous, but is identified only as the "Mrs." of "Chas. McLaughlin". Bradley & Rulofson were preeminent photographers in 19th century San Francisco, taking the photographs of many of the wealthier residents in the city. This woman - with her elaborate hairdo, beautiful clothing and hand-colored embroidered shawl, identifies her as a woman of upper class San Francisco. But, a first name she does not have.<br /><br />At the Archives Crawl on Saturday, October 13, there will be various types of photographs on display: card photographs, prints and photo albums. In addition to photographs - you will see Gold Rush Letter-sheets, maps, and artifacts women would have carried with them across the Plains and around the Horn.<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday!<br /></td></tr>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Quilts came to California by as many routes as the pioneers. By wagon, by ship around Cape Horn and by ship and steamer via the Isthmus of Panama. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The quilts themselves were made of fabrics as varied as their means of arrival.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upon reaching California, the materials needed to produce a quilt were not always available.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Needles, pins, thread and small scissors, were carried with them on their journey, but pieces of cloth were often traded for with new neighbors, purchased in the newly minted general merchandise stores, and even salvaged from ship wrecked trunks of other travelers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Harriet Zumwalt, she later married Mr. Smith, came to California as a young child. Her recollection, in the <i>History Book</i> of the Association of Pioneer Women of California, relates some incidents of her journey to California by wagon. She notes that one man died of cholera on the way, and his wife and children went back to Missouri. Indians were always present, but not always a problem. River crossings were dangerous - horses, men and wagons were lost in the strong currents. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The account notes that the region of the Green River (in what is now Wyoming) was particularly dangerous, and there they lost one of their party - a coffin was not to be found, so one of their precious quilts was used to provide a somewhat decent burial for the man.<br />
<br />
Please visit us on October 13, between 1 and 5pm, for the San Francisco Archives Crawl.<br />
One other quilt will be on view - the Cross Plains Star. </div>

We at the Sutro Libray have decided to focus on the things that travelers brought with them when they traveled. We have many physical reminders of people's past journeys: government documents, diaries, maps, guidebooks, letters, and books. One item that traveled relates strongly to the upcoming 400th anniversary of the <em><a href="http://guides.library.umass.edu/c.php?g=672399&p=4735604">Mayflower</a>'s </em>voyage and colonization of the area known today as New England.<br />
<br />
The participants of the Mayflower journey are credited with taking a particular version of the Bible with them to the new world. It’s known as the Geneva Bible, in honor of the very active community of Protestants in the city where it was printed. It predates the more famous King James Version (which Sutro also has) and continued to be produced for some years before being practically supplanted.<br />
<br />
The Sutro Library owns a 1582 imprint of the bible which was originally printed in 1560. This later printing demonstrates two significant differences from the earlier one. The first printing was printed in Roman type, while our version is printed in black-letter. However, the more commonly ascribed difference is the use of the word ‘breeches’ to describe the plant based clothing Adam and Eve used to cover themselves. This printed edition among Geneva Bibles is known as the Breeches Bible.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Breech1" height="640" src="https://i2.wp.com/thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech1.jpg?ssl=1" width="640" /><br />
<br />
There were multiple additional features which appeared in the printed text. Glosses, illustrations and more gave the reader a more direct understanding of the scriptures. In this period literacy and printing was empowering individuals to make decisions about their own faiths and directly challenged the authority of the priestly classes.<br />
Our book includes 3 other works: Whole Booke of Psalms, printed in 1581; Concordances, printed in 1582; and the Book of Common Prayer, printed in 1582.<br />
As you can imagine, cataloging a work of this historical importance and complexity is a significant challenge. Have a look at the deluge of notes in the <a href="http://catalog.library.ca.gov/F/88RDLD9D8YXPILD5374P31I5JHJFYC8U77U692JSS66GKM9JY4-48260?func=full-set-set&set_number=003857&set_entry=000001&format=999">record</a>:<br />
<br />
<img alt="breech2" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-250" height="1080" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech2.png" width="1920" /><br />
<br />
The devil is in the details, so without the careful work of an expert cataloging librarian, researchers would lack the information they need to identify materials of interest remotely. We are most grateful to our expert cataloger, Dan Taysom, for creating this amazing record for this special item.<br />
Another perennial problem is condition. After 436 years of use, anyone would look a bit tired! We sent the volume in its tattered state to a professional conservator for treatment. Our priority as custodians is to ensure that materials continue to be accessible for hundreds of years into the future.<br />
<br />
Here is the bible before conservation treatment:<br />
<br />
<img alt="breech5" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-251" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech5.jpg" width="644" /><img alt="breech4" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-252" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech4.jpg" width="644" /><img alt="breech3" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-253" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech3.jpg" width="644" /><br />
<br />
As you can see, the way the binding is damaged makes it very difficult to use. Handling a book in this condition will often result in further damage. It’s the conservator’s job to stabilize the binding, effect any necessary or integral repairs, but not necessarily hide the repairs or erase some of the books history. Restoration is the process of making something old look like-new. Conservation is the process of stabilizing something so that it will be usable, but maintaining whatever features have been added or changes which have occurred over time.<br />
<br />
Here is the bible after treatment:<br />
<br />
<img alt="breech8" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-254" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech8.jpg" width="644" /><img alt="breech7" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-255" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech7.jpg" width="644" /><img alt="breech6" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-256" height="484" src="https://thesutrolibrary.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/breech6.jpg" width="644" /><br />
<br />
If you’d like to see this bible, or any other items from Adolph Sutro’s rare book collection, please email <a href="mailto:sutro@library.ca.gov">sutro@library.ca.gov</a> or call 415-469-6100 to schedule an appointment. Make sure you mention the call number for this book: BS170 1582.<br />
<br />
We wish to thank the California State Library Foundation for funding the conservation work on this bible and Sarah Elson of Sarah Elson Bookbinding, Menlo Park, for the pictures submitted for this article and for her outstanding conservation work.<br />

One of the photograph collections I am most excited to share for San Francisco Archives Crawl consists of carte de visite and cabinet card portraits collected by the Mexican American woman Hipolita Orendain de Medina between 1860 and 1906. Orendain de Medina was born in Mexico around 1847, and immigrated with her mother and sister to San Francisco in the late 1850s, where both sisters worked as dressmakers. Her collection reflects the Victorian carte de visite trading tradition (of which former California Historical Society intern Louisa Brandt eloquently writes <a href="https://californiahistoricalsociety.blogspot.com/2017/09/reuniting-collection-importance-of.html">here</a>) as well as the cultural and linguistic diversity of late-nineteenth-century San Francisco. <div>

San Francisco’s second annual Archives Crawl celebrates the
history of immigration and immigrants in California. The immigration stories
documented in the archival record held at the California Historical Society are
various and complex, reflecting experiences of cultural resilience and
survival, as well as struggles with discrimination and hardship. Some of the
records at CHS were generated by local, state, and federal authorities to
surveil and control immigrant communities, and restrict immigration based on
race and ethnicity. One such collection consists of seventeen certificates of
residence for Chinese laborers, dated between the years 1894 and 1897. This
collection has been digitized and is available on CHS’s digital library <a href="http://digitallibrary.californiahistoricalsociety.org/object/2607?">here</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now a rich source of historical and genealogical significance,
these certificates represented the codification of nineteenth-century
sinophobia, or anti-Chinese racism. Under the provisions of the 1892 Geary Act,
which amended the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, all Chinese and Chinese
Americans in the United States were required to apply for, obtain, and carry a
government-issued certificate of residence proving their legal presence in the
United States. Any person of Chinese ethnicity discovered without such
identification risked arrest and deportation. The Geary Act essentially
legislated racial profiling: Chinese Americans were presumed guilty of an
immigration offense based solely on their ethnicity, as perceived by
non-Chinese authorities, until proven innocent. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Each certificate includes the laborer’s name, local
residence, and occupation; information about his height, eye color, complexion,
and physical marks or peculiarities; and a photographic print. Reproduced above
is the certificate for Wong Kin Hay [?], a 37-year-old farmer from Mountain
View, California. <o:p></o:p><br />

Among the later selections is a group of photographs taken by German geographer Anton Wagner who traversed Depression-era Los Angeles on foot as he researched his 1935 book—the first study of the sprawling metropolis—in which he marveled that the city appeared to have "no beginning nor end." From pictures of San Francisco on fire following the 1906 earthquake, to photographs taken in the 1920s of the nascent Hollywoodland housing development—which bequeathed the city its iconic sign—this exhibition draws exclusively from CHS’s extensive photographic holdings.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Boomtowns: How Photography Shaped Los Angeles and San Francisco, Selections from the California Historical Society Collection considers the first one hundred years of photography in what would become California’s two most prominent cities. As San Francisco and Los Angeles entered a period of rapid, unimaginable growth following the state’s entry into the Union in 1850, photography played a significant role in defining and shaping how the rest of the country understood California. Photographers also captured and responded to the distinctly different topography and development patterns of the two cities. The exhibition features works by both anonymous photographers and well-known artists—such as Carleton Watkins, Eadweard Muybridge, Minor White, Laura Adams Armer, and Arnold Genthe—and includes photographs made for a broad range of purposes, from civic boosterism and real estate development, to industry and art.</span></span></span></div>

We are excited to announce that our theme this year is <u>Im(migration) and Indigenous Voices of California</u>. Each organization will display collections that focus on that theme. How is San Francisco and the Bay Area's immigration history collected? What can we learn from these collections? How do these histories relate to our lives and current events? These are all questions you can think about as you go from archive to archive.<br />
