PROVENANCE: My father was a patient at La Rabida Childern's Hospital when he was nine years old in August-September of 1958. Most of the book is signed by the doctors and nurses who cared for my father, along with signatures from other children. Time to time famous athletes and entertainers would visit the children - amongst the pages of the autograph book are the signatures of those special visitors. Showed dated pages of non-famous people to show proof of age.
The book binding is weak - but still intact... Pages do show some age spots and minor damage to some edges - but important signatures all look to be in good condition.
