SFPD CRIME SCRAPBOOK: 1909



The San Francisco History Center has been hard at work processing archival records of the San Francisco Police Department. The collection consists of approximately 65 linear feet of records issued or compiled by the Board of Police Commissioners, the Chief of Police, and other offices and bureaus of the SFPD, circa 1880s-1960s. They contain newspaper stories covering local crimes as well as throughout the state from 1908 thru 1933. In addition, the scrapbooks document other events involving SFPD including accidents, runaways, suicides, etc.
