Shahshahani was one the few people who could read, understand and analyze the significance of rare and unique archival material and historical documents and deeds (firman).
They included Farmans, manuscripts and calligraphy, hand written orders by kings and rulers, usually in cursive and writing of high historical and aesthetic value.
He loved collecting such documents that were sometimes in poor shape.
He spent countless hours to read, repair, understand, evaluate and at times frame them.

Shahshahani's valuable collection of such items which included more that 285 Farmans and documents were given to the Reza Abbasi Museum in Tehran in 1978 (1357).
