The Texas State Historical Association:
Past and Future
The Texas State Historical Association began on February 13, 1897, when ten individuals met on the University
of Texas campus to discuss founding an organization to promote the discovery, collection, preservation, and publication of historical material pertaining to Texas. The assemblage included academic and nonacademic historians, a blend of membership that has been preserved to the present.
The Association’s first director (or secretary, as he was called at the time) was history professor George P. Garrison
of the University of Texas, and he brought together the most respected names in Texas to help him with his endeavor. Many of the organization’s founding members were veterans of the Texas Revolution, Mexican War, and
Civil War. Many held political offices. Some were well known writers and historians. Year after year, the Association’s membership grew as it recruited not only the writers, but also the makers of Texas history.
For more than a century, the Texas State Historical Association has played a leadership role in Texas history
research and education, helping to identify, collect, preserve, and tell the stories of Texas. Located on the campus
of the University of North Texas since 2008, these two organizations, with their partners and members, strive to
create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. The collaboration will provide passion, talent, and longterm support for the dissemination of scholarly research, educational programs for the K-12 community, and
opportunities for public discourse about the complex issues and personalities of our heritage.
The TSHA’s core programs include the Texas Almanac, the Southwestern Historical Quarterly, the Handbook of
Texas Online, the TSHA Press, and an Education Program that reaches out to students and teachers at all levels
throughout the state. The central challenge before the TSHA is to seize the unprecedented opportunities of the
digital age in order to reshape how history will be accessed, understood, preserved, disseminated, and taught in
the twenty-first century. In the coming years, we will capitalize on these momentous opportunities to expand
the scope and depth of our work in ways never before possible.
In the midst of this rapid change, the Texas State Historical Association will continue to provide a future for our
heritage and to ensure that the lessons of our history continue to serve as a resource for the people of Texas. Your
participation in this auction will provide much needed support for our ongoing efforts.
Sincerely,
J. Kent Calder
TSHA Executive Director

294. Archival pigment print from a TINTYPE
original taken by Robb Kendrick in
2005. SIGNED. Print title: Tim Stout, Quien Sabe
Ranch, Texas. Robb Kendrick’s photos for National
Geographic have won him international recognition.
But in the past decade, his work as a tintype artist
has earned him even wider acclaim. Kendrick has
resurrected the tintype format, a photo technique from
the mid-19th century, to bring a haunting timelessness
to his portrait subjects, which include cowboys from
the West, Tarahumara Indians in Northern Mexico
and mummies in Guanajuato, Mexico. The tintype
photos he creates with the wet-plate process are each
one of a kind as they are all handmade from start to
finish. Kendrick has published four books of tintypes.
Kendrick’s first book of tintypes was Revealing
Character, which was also a touring exhibition that
is being featured at eight major museums in the U.S.
The wet-plate portraits of working cowboys that are
collected in Still: Cowboys at the Start of the 21st
