Adrian H. Joline's three volume collection of items signed by U.S. Secretaries of War (from Henry Knox to Henry L. Stimson), Secretaries of State (from Thomas Jefferson to Elihu Root), and Speakers of the House of Representatives (from Frederick Muhlenberg to Joseph G. Cannon). Volumes contain 248 inlaid signed letters, documents, or individual signatures. Also present are portraits of cabinet members, representatives, and some spouses, and other illustrations--mostly engravings and also a few photographs, some of which are signed. Volumes were compiled in 1912. U.S. presidents in this collection include John Quincy Adams, James Buchanan, Ulysses S. Grant, James Madison, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, James K. Polk, William H. Taft, and Martin Van Buren; presidential items have been individually cataloged.
