Financial records of an unknown individual or firm, 1913-1940, for which some volumes have been partially or entirely re-used as scrapbooks, pasted over with newspaper clippings and photographs related to San Francisco public figures, buildings, parks, cultural institutions, politics, social life, and history, dated from the late 1920s to 1945. As scrapbooks, the volumes may be attributable to Madie D. Brown, who served on the California State Park Commission. Persons represented include Superintendant of Parks John McLaren and mayors James Rolph Jr., Angelo Rossi, and Roger Lapham. A few of the account books contain no clippings.
