Henry Collins Brown was founder of the Museum of the City of New York. The original Valentine?s Manual began in 1841 by David T. Valentine who was a clerk of the Common Council and the first to preserve the records of the City of New York. Brown was inspired to continue the Valentine Manual style but changed the format to include historical facts, reproductions of old maps and colored prints of New York instead of the original financial city records. Brown?s manual is a unique social history of New York beautifully illustrated in the style of day.
