Abstract
In 1836, Isabella Wilson Craig marked the New Year in her amicorum, or friendship album, with a small watercolor done by a family friend. The album was a gift from her parents, Neville B. Craig, editor of the Pittsburgh Gazette and his wife Jane Anne Fulton. A valued possession for any young woman in the early 1800s, the dark-brown tooled leather album would collect sketches, poems, inscriptions, signatures and drawings from her friends and acquaintances.
