Original caption

Ship at Oregon Improvement Company docks, 1908

Description

Seattle Public Library had this dated 1908, but they dated another print of the same photo as 1900. If anything, 1900 might be a little late, and 1908 is out of the question. In the photo, Pier A says "Oregon Improvement Co." I (Joe Mabel) am not sure of the exact date that would have changed to "Pacific Coast Co." (or, apparently briefly, "Pacific Coast St. Co"), but it's around 1900.

Date

circa 1900
