Watkins Oregon View

O.S.N. Co's Works, Dalles City, Columbia River [Stereoview 1307]

Watkins, Carleton

Notes: A stereograph view of the Oregon Steam Navigation pier at The Dalles, a lumber and passenger port about 80 miles east of Portland.

Watkins copyrighted this view in 1867. This stereo card is seen on orange (this) and yellow mounts. The yellow mount examples include the date adopted here. The orange cards may have been made at a slightly later date, but prior to the mid-1870s, when Watkins lost possession of his negatives in a financial dispute.

Edition + Condition: Minor wear to the corners; image with medium contrast and minor staining.

Publication: San Francisco: Watkins' Pacific Coast, [1867].
