On Tuesday, we began our new blog series that highlights some of the many incredible documents, images, maps and other historical goodies that our State Archives possesses.

The first “contestant” in this month’s Archives treasures poll was the boxing license application that Muhammad Ali submitted under his former name, Cassius Clay.

The second “contestant” is one of the many photos showing the construction of the Legislative Building on the Capitol Campus. The photo of the building, minus the dome, was taken sometime between 1922 and 1927. It’s part of the State Archives’ Susan Parish Photograph Collection, 1889-1990.

Watch for the third Archives treasure to be showcased Thursday and then choose your favorite starting on Friday.

(We originally ran the blog series in 2012. Due to its popularity, we’re bringing them back for an encore performance!)
