Today I learned the @LAPublicLibrary has a website for its digital collections, which includes a fruit crate label collection and an autograph collection started by Charles Lummis, LA city librarian from 1905-1910. And I just think that's really cool! tessa.lapl.org/

I first learned about Lummis in "The Library Book" by @susanorlean. Sounds like he was quite the personality so I'm not surprised he just asked a bunch of famous people to provide their autographs for posterity. I can't remember if this was included in the book...
