http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/25918953

The scrapbook series contains clippings related to Benjamin Tillman's career, South Crolina and national politics, and Tillman's personal interests. There are a variety of pamphlets, invitations, souveniers, and other items pasted in the books. Scrapbook six, for example, contains a note withdrawing a White House ivitation to Tillman. Photographs have been removed to the photograph series. This series provides an excellent overview for Tillman's career from the viewpoint of the public press. The clippings are primarily from South Carolina newspapers until the mid-1890s but thereafter include papers from around the nation. Not all clippings are identified or dated.
