  Historical/biog note:

  Thacher served as Mayor of Albany, New York, May 4, 1886 to April 20, 1888, and January 1, 1896 to December 31, 1897. Also represented Albany in the New York State Senate, 1883-1884. He ran on the Democratic Party ticket and was actively involved with the party throughout his political career.

  Review:

  A collection of scrapbooks Thacher compiled relative to his interest and career in politics and government. They are comprised chiefly of newspaper clippings, but also include printed broadsides, circulars, leaflets, and booklets. The content of the material relates mostly to politics and government in Albany and New York State. Two of the volumes concern special events: the World Columbian Exposition in 1893, and the centenary celebration of Albany as the capital of New York State from 1797 to 1897.
