Historical NoteReturn to Top

The Oregonian was founded as a weekly paper in 1850 by William W. Chapman, Stephen Coffin, and Thomas Jefferson Dryer. Despite his first name, Dryer was a Whig, and later a Republican; these leanings would have a lasting effect on the paper's editorial stance.

In 1860, Dryer left Portland to campaign on behalf of Abraham Lincoln, leaving the English-born Henry L. Pittock in charge of the paper. The following year, Pittock began publishing the Oregonian as a daily newspaper. In 1865, Pittock hired Harvey W. Scott to be editor of the paper. Scott remained editor until his death in 1910, with the exception of the years 1872-1877, when W. Lair Hill was editor. Notable editors and publishers of the Oregonian since Pittock and Scott have included Palmer Hoyt, Ronald G. Callvert, Ben Hur Lampman, Michael J. Frey, Robert Notson, J. Richard Nokes, and Fred Stickel.

In the 1930s, the paper, struggling financially, hired Stars and Stripes founder Colonel Guy T. Viskiniskki, who dramatically changed the layout and format of the paper as a means of modernizing it. Publishing mogul Samuel I. Newhouse purchased the Oregonian in 1950, ending local ownership. In 1982, when the Oregonian's main rival, the Oregon Journal, went out of business, the Journal's staff and production, which had shared offices with the Oregonian since 1961, were absorbed into the Oregonian.

As of 2016, the Oregonian was the oldest continuously published newspaper in the Pacific Northwest.

Content DescriptionReturn to Top

The collection contains images from the Oregonian's files, which were acquired through multiple donations from the 1970s to the 1990s. The vast majority of the images are black-and-white production prints.

In addition to photographs taken by Oregonian staff members such as Frank Sterrett, Carl C. Vermilya, Jim Vincent, Peter G. Corvallis, Chuck von Wald, Wes Guderian, and Michael Lloyd, there are photographs from other newspapers and from newswire services such as AP and UPI. The collection also contains a few conceptual drawings, architectural drawings, and maps.

The collection contains photographs of a number of prominent Portlanders and Oregonians, including University of Oregon vice president Dr. Burt Brown Barker, cartoonist Homer Davenport, Portland police chief Leon V. Jenkins, Oregon writers Stewart Holbrook and Ben Hur Lampman, Portland mayor Dorothy McCullough Lee, and Oregon governors Earl Snell and Paul Patterson. Some national and international figures such as presidents Calvin Coolidge and Herbet Hoover, Supreme Court justice Charles Evans Hughes, and Queen Marie of Romania are also represented in the collection. Many photographs of locations, businesses and organizations in Oregon and in Portland are included, as well as photographs of Washington State and of other national and international locations. Subjects covered include agriculture, art, aviation, boats, automobiles, health and medicine, plants and animals, the military, and sports and recreation.
