Among the earlier images are several scanned (and some born digital) images of the Governor’s Mansion and its occupants at various points throughout the building’s long history. There are also several images of Governor Rick Perry or Texas First Lady Anita Perry making speeches regarding the damage to the mansion or on behalf of fundraising efforts for mansion repair and restoration.
