2021.3.2.190Description
Thomas W. Temple II's Criminal Procedure notebook, ca. 1930. A signature that reads "Tom Temple" is present on the back side of the front cover with "San Francisco / June 30, 1930" and "251 San Marcos St / Jan 31, 1939" handwritten underneath in pencil. The early pages are divided into sections based on different legal cases, outlining the facts and interpretations of each. Many of the pages simply list names and dates, most likely relating to cases, and use shorthand. Some of the notes have been written in Spanish. Several pages have become loose (b-h). Part of an evelope for the Claretian Missionaries of Old Plaza Church in Los Angeles, California (i) has been stored between the pages of the notebook. On the front of the envelope, there is a handwritten note in Spanish which reads, "Edel Heart of Maria... Universal History- 3 copies by the Catholic professor Dr. Juan Bta. Weiss. Typography education... (before sending we want the prices and other details)." On the back side of the envelope, multiple handwritten lists of numbers are present. With minor discoloration, minor acid burns, minor foxing, and minor surface abrasions, the object is in fair condition overall.
