Historical Note

The Robert and Otto Paulus papers contain over one thousand glass plate negatives of historical significance to Willamette University, the city of Salem, and the Willamette Valley. Otto K. Paulus took the majority of the images, dated between 1914 and 1918, during his time as a student at Willamette University. His brother, Robert Paulus, probably took a large proportion of the other images. The images fall into three broad categories: scenes of Willamette University; scenes of Salem and the Oregon countryside; and several hundred formal studio portraits of Salem citizens.
