The State Historical Society of Colorado, founded in 1879, was created to collect, preserve, and interpret Colorado's history following the state's admission to the Union in 1876. The society's official publication, Colorado Magazine, first issued in 1923, featured articles on the history of Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region. This publication later evolved into the Colorado Historical Quarterly, continuing the society's efforts to document and promote the state's historical scholarship.
