Seattle Photographic Company photograph album, circa 1900

The collection consists of one photograph album with black canvas-covered cardboard covers and 53 black and white photographs mounted on gray cardboard pages. The inside front and back covers are stamped "Seattle Photographic Co." Each photograph is captioned with an identifying number; the album was possibly a sample book shown to prospective customers. The vast majority of the photographs are signed "Wilse," with a few signed "Seattle Photographic Co." The bulk of the photographs were taken in Seattle, with a few elsewhere in Washington State. Subjects include buildings such as Denny Hall and King County Courthouse, Pioneer Square, Seattle parks and bike paths, downtown street views, the Seattle waterfront and ships, aerial views, the Great Northern rail line, scenic views in Seattle and Washington, and portraits of Indigenous people.
