You are bidding on an amazing title document which outlines a property on Canal Street, Santa Barbara, California from its very first acquisition in 1859 through to January 1920. The item has hard bound covers with the usual ribbon holding the pages together. The history content of this item is of the most major proportions. Pages after pages of real original information as the property changes hands along the way. When you consider that Mexico deeded the territory to the USA in 1848 and it became the state of California in 1850 this must be one of the oldest historical pieces of information ever to appear about the area. It is in remarkable condition, no rips or tears and the hardcovers are in great shape for being over 87 years old! Unsure of number of pages, but appears to be perhpas 200 or more. Any questions or further information required please contact me. Shipping/handling $10.
