There is a discussion here
http://thequeristsalbum.wikidot.com/
with a link to this
I haven't seen one myself but they were apparently not uncommon - there is one listed on Abe which is described as "Ten Thousandth" (I assume printing.) To me the most interesting thing would be to try and work out who the individual people were - like an autograph or birthday book. The VIctorians developed endless genteel ways of amusing themselves during those long afternoons in the drawing room.
