http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78659297

These records contain abstracts of information originally included in deeds conveyed to purchasers of lands sold for unpaid taxes. The Comptroller's Office was in charge of selling lands for unpaid taxes until 1926, when that function was assumed by the Dept. of Taxation and Finance. Earlier volumes are handwritten; typed copies of abstracts begin in 1926. Some volumes contain tipped-in blank sample forms of the type that would have been used to create the original deed conveyed to the purchaser.
