201828063San Francisco: Nahl Bros. Lith. L. Nagel Print Sept. 20th 1859 2018. Peters California on Stone 175; Morland L. Stevens Charles Christian Nahl Artist of the Gold Rush #80. Some wear to the paper at the edges affecting the caption title banner but not the pictorial images; light foxing; very good example. Broadside 66 x 51 cm lithograph on India paper backed with a heavier stock of paper at an early stage. ¶ A rare example of the grand certificate of membership in the Society of California Pioneers the first organization of its kind west of the Mississippi. The Society was founded in 1850 with a membership restricted to those who had arrived in California prior to January 1 1850. In 1858 the Society contracted the Nahl Brothers artists and lithographers to design and print this lavish pictorial certificate. Below the caption title banner are iconic and romantic California scenes in vignettes arranged in a manner similar to a mural depicting miners panning for gold Sutter's Fort Yosemite Valley a vaquero roping a steer a grove of giant sequoias a ship entering the Golden Gate a hunter a grizzly bear etc. In the lower part of the multifaceted image are three native California Indians a man woman and child sitting at the base of a tree with expressions of sad resignation on their faces at the events unfolding in the scenes above a subtle and undoubtedly intentional representation by Charles Nahl. This is the earliest version of a certificate of membership in the Society and an early example of that version being number 73 dated September 20 1859 signed by Alexander Abell and William R. Wheaton president and secretary of the Society. <br/><br/> San Francisco: Nahl Bros. Lith., L. Nagel Print, Sept. 20th 1859 unknown books
