Albuquerque City Map, 1898

Materials contained in this collection were acquired from different sources but are all related to the career of Frank A. Hubbell, Bernalillo County school superintendent and Republican Party activist. A photocopy of a 1916 letter Hubbell wrote lamenting political charges leveled at him by the Albuquerque Journal is illustrated by the political cartoons and news articles contained in the scrapbook which also includes clippings about national events like the McKinney assassination and international affairs such as the 1905 Russo-Japanese War. Later clippings describe research done on San Miguel Church during the 1950s. Besides clippings, there is a photocopy of a 1902 receipt for Hubbell’s salary as school superintendent. Among other items in the collection are a replica of a 1898 Albuquerque city map printed by the Miller Brewing Company and a facsimile of a pass to a hanging signed by Sheriff Hubbell. A folder of items printed for New Mexico’s Golden Anniversary in 1962 is also included with the collection.
