This series consists of a scrapbook containing prints of sketches that Kessler made of California missions. In 1938, Kessler made a bicycle journey during which he sketched and photographed every mission from Sonoma to San Diego. He spent a full year creating linoleum cuts of each mission. Each of the missions are represented in a hard-bound wood sample book entitled “The California Missions Greeting Cards Book,” and the resulting prints were exhibited in California and at the World’s Fair in Treasure Island, and the Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco. The book consists of 22 pages and each linoleum cut includes the name of the mission.
