Description

From the materials for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition of 1909, held in Seattle.

  • The picture at upper left extends roughly from mid-Belltown to about Pike Street and the pier now numbered 59, roughly Pike Street. The hill in the picture—Denny Hill—was later regraded away.
  • The picture at upper right is just south of that.
  • The picture at lower left continues roughly from Marion to Yesler Way (you can see St. James Cathedral (RC) on top of the First Hill). The smokestack is on a steam plant right by Pioneer Square, which still exists though it no longer belches smoke.
  • At lower right then continues that down to about King Street. On top of the hill is the old King County Courthouse (now demolished); the tower near the right is King Street Station.
Date Edition dated 1909-02-20. Photos 1909 or earlier.

(Reusing this file)		 Mechanical scan of a work that is in the public domain because of its age


This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
Note: This tag should not be used for sound recordings.PD-1923Public domain in the United States//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Argus_-_A.Y.P._ed._-_Page_51.jpg

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
