Notes:
I recently bought this 100 year old booklet because I believe it will be treasured by a Guyon-Cadillac family member or family researcher. This 160 page booklet celebrates the First Woman of Detroit, Michigan. There are photos of all of the floats in the parade, short biographical sketches of the prominent women in Detroit in 1901, ads from businesses, and biographical paragraphs on many leading businessmen. The booklet also contains a list of patrons, and a long descriptive list of the Table of Contents.
This booklet is really something, and I would hate to see it stay in my files. Please contact me if you have an interest in it.
