Portée et contenu
The collection consists of a single autograph booklet owned by Sarah A. (Emmons) Miller. The date range is approximately 1887 to 1888. Miller, at the time, lived in Cass City, which is located in Tuscola County, Michigan. Miller used the booklet to collect autographs and messages from women friends, explicitly stating in the booklet that it was her intention. Friends signed their names and wrote messages hoping Miller enjoyed a long and happy life.

Accès physique
The covers of the booklet are cardboard with an illustration of a woman printed on the front. The illustration appears to be generic and does not represent Sarah Miller. The pages are paper. Writing is handwritten and in cursive and ink.
The general condition of the booklet is fair. The front cover is at risk of becoming detached. The binding is loose, though all pages remain connected to it. Some yellowing is present on pages. Some ink has faded slightly but all writing is clearly visible.
