Description
English:

In 1914, the Anderson Steamboat Company launched the ferry "Issaquah." The vessel was one of the first in the Pacific Northwest designed to carry automobiles as well as horsedrawn vehicles. Until 1918, the "Issaquah" sailed between Leschi, Mercer Island and Newport, where it linked up with the new highway to North Bend. The "Issaquah" could also be rented for excursions with dancing. This photo, taken at the Anderson Shipyard at Houghton, on Lake Washington, shows the ferry "Issaquah" at its launching. It is included in an album titled "The Swedes' Life and Work in the State of Washington" and was acquired by the Swedish Club of Seattle.

Some of the photos in the album are signed Nordlands Foto Company, K.E. Nordland owner, 1707 Market Street, Ballard.
