A group of two volumes of printed autograph books entitled arranged by Cecil Henland (New York, n. d.). The directions indicate individuals are to sign their names along the fold of the individual sheets of paper with a full pen of ink and then double the page over without using blotting paper. The result is a "ghostly" image, which is then signed and dated by the owner. Many notable Chicagoans have contributed their "ghost" autographs, including the Ryersons and McCormicks.
