Description
English:

Seattle held its first world's fair, the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition (AYPE) in 1909. The fair promoted the region's growth and prosperity that had begun with the 1897 arrival of the first shipment of Yukon gold. "The Seattle Spirit For Mine, 1909" was but one of the songs written at the time to promote the upcoming AYPE. Rene Bronner wrote the lyrics and Claribel Murphey Blomquist the music. The cover has a large photograph of the Lowman & Hanford Building, on the corner of First Avenue and Cherry Street in Seattle's Pioneer Square district. The piece was published by Claribel Murphey Blomquist in Seattle and by Otto Zimmerman & Son in Cincinnati, Ohio. The back cover has ads for four additional songs by Ms. Blomquist.
