Southern Pacific RR- 90 Original Photos Oregon
<B>Southern Pacific Railroad Original Photo Album with 90+ Oregon Photographs,</B></I> circa 1900. A ledger-style clothbound album from the Southern Pacific General Passenger Office Reference Library, labeled on the spine "Book No. 13 / Oregon / Anna Creek / Crater Lake / Columbia River / Klamath Falls, Ore. / Klamath Lake / New R.R. Line From Weed to K.F." These high-quality photographs average 8" x 6" in size and are all mounted on linen pages (one side only) with handwritten descriptions below. Many have a red ink stamp "Southern Pacific Photo / File Copy". The images were most likely shot by Southern Pacific's staff photographers and, very possibly, many were first seen in the railroad's promotional magazine <I>Sunset.</B></I> Vividly captured is the natural beauty of this area as well as manmade landmarks such as government buildings, homes, businesses, and of course, railroad tracks. A fabulous collection.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Books & Catalogs (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
