    Method of Acquisition

    This collection is an artificial collection of scrapbooks related to San Diego which were found in a larger collection of unprocessed ephemera, donated by John and Jane Adams in 1989. Some scrapbooks were also part of the artificial San Diego Memorabilia Collection and were removed because of format.
