Seattle streets, Army transport ships, and Denny HallJames B. Barton was a photographer living and working in Seattle from
approximately 1900 until the late 1960s. He is listed in the city directory
variously as a bookeeper, collector, photographer, salesman and insurance
agent. James B. Barton and his brother Arthur formed the Barton Brothers
photography studio.
Photographs depicting various street scenes in Seattle; U.S. Army
transport ships, probably departing for the Philippines in 1900; and Denny Hall
on the University of Washington campus. They were made by the Barton Brothers,
probably Arthur and James B. Barton.
The photographs were probably originally part of an album.
