Constitutions
The current Pennsylvania constitution dates from 1873, although it has been amended several times in the intervening years. An annotated copy of the constitution can be found in the first two volumes of Purdon's Statutes, the commercial codification of Pennsylvania legislation. Previous constitutions date from 1776, 1790, and 1838. Among other places, they can be found together in a small book published for the 1967-68 constitutional convention titled Constitutions of Pennsylvania. The debates of the various constitutional conventions exist as separate multi-volume sets.
