The end of the Victorian era went out with a bang as US President McKinley was assassinated. This rare hand made scrap book is an amazing collection of period newspaper clippings documenting the nations loss and mourning. Articles include the funeral, hearse, services, the Anarchists, the late Presidents wife, even the gun used to kill the Commander and chief are depicted. Housed in a hard card cover music book, the original owner must have been quite the politician’s fan of this martyred politico. Rare political history.
