MUSCATINE COUNTY, IOWA Picture Album of 1891

This tiny album shows many pictures of the City of Muscatine, back in 1891. The album was sent to us by Norma Rogers, who describes this album as follows: "the cover is only about 4x6 and it is only about 1/4 inch thick. You open the cover and the pages of tiny pictures are folded in like those old postcard souveneir books, like an accordion." She told Dave Dunston that her kids found this album several years ago in an antique store and gave it to her because she collects old pictures and postcards of Muscatine. And lucky for all of us, she has scanned this entire album and sent it to me to put it online so the whole world can see what Muscatine looked like back in 1891. Thank you very much, Norma, for doing this!!!!

Dave Dunston, the webmaster, broke up these pages, that showed several images on one page, into an individual image per link. Each link below will show you a single image of Muscatine. Since these images are small they should load up on your computer very quickly. There are a total of 54 images to click to on this webpage. So enough said, start clicking on the links and enjoy the pictures of Muscatine back in 1891.
