1937 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY AND SCRAPBOOK HANDWRITTEN AND COMPILED BY A BELOVED RELIGIOUS LEADER IN PRE WAR RHODE ISLAND

On offer is a super, original pre World War II 1937 to 1940 manuscript diary and scrapbook compiled and handwritten by the Reverend C.H. von Glahn of Curtis Corners, South Kingstown Rhode Island. The book paints a very complete picture of the life and times of this honoured religious figure and beloved family man all the while with the back drop of international events and the impending War. The Reverend begins the large well filled 11 x 8 inch 300 page book noting the book was a Christmas Day gift from his grandson Jack which is plenty of motivation for him to keep up with his writings. His inspiration obviously works as the book will please any historian or collector of the history and background of Rhode Island at the time as the writings are given the further depth of being littered with clippings, notes and photographs++.
