From the Collection:

Collection consists of two scrapbooks documenting the travels of Benjamin Rush Strong. Strong traveled extensively during the late 19th century. His travels were often the subjects of articles he wrote for local newspapers, some of which are placed at the beginning of the first scrapbook. The majority of the collection includes itineraries, letters and telegraphs, fare tickets, post cards and photographs, receipts, and other documents from European countries in the 1880s and 1890s. Handwritten notes are found alongside many items in the scrapbooks.
