About This Item
Seattle; Skagway, 1900. Twelve photographs, each approximately 4 1/4 x 7 1/2 inches. Overall very good. A collection of photographs taken by Seattle photographer Frank La Roche. La Roche (1853- 1934), a Philadelphia native transplanted to the Northwest, established a photography studio in Seattle in 1889. He undertook many trips to Alaska, documenting the Klondike Gold Rush at length from 1897 to 1899. This group contains images of Juneau, Sitka, Fort Wrangell (here spelled Wrangle), and Taku Glacier. Two images are of Chilkat Tlingit Indians, and one photo of the Seymour Rapids in British Columbia is also included. Each is numbered and captioned in manuscript or in print within the negative. Exemplary images from this noted landscape photographer of Alaska and the West
