Abstract:

Philip Green Gossler (1870-1945) was an electrical engineer and businessperson who spent his career working in public utilities, eventually becoming chair of the board of directors at Columbia Gas & Electric Company. This small collection consists of a memorial resolution prepared by the board of directors of Columbia Gas & Electric following Gossler's death in 1945. It was hand-written on parchment in calligraphy mimicking medieval illuminated manuscripts, a style popular for such documents during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It includes illuminated initials and line fillers.
