Boyd and Braas PhotographsThe partnership of William F. Boyd and George H. Braas began in 1890 and ended when Boyd left the partnership to form his own business. This small collection of only 45 images shows the aftermath of the Seattle fire of June 6, 1889 and other pre-20th century views of Seattle, of its pioneers and of the surrounding region. About the DatabaseThe information for the Boyd and Braas collection was researched and prepared by the UW Libraries Special Collections staff in 1998. Research, writing, and image scanning were done by Kristin Kinsey. Not all the photographs from the Boyd and Braas collection were included in this database: the database consists of 45 digital images chosen from a group of 74 vintage photographic prints. The photographs were scanned using a Microtek Scanmaker 9600L and saved in .jpg format. Some manipulation of the photographs was done to correct for color inconsistencies and to present the clearest possible digital image. The scanned images were then linked with descriptive data using the UW CONTENT program. The original collection resides in the UW Libraries Special Collections Division as the Boyd and Braas Collection. PH Coll 277 and the Seattle Fire Collection. PH Coll 684. |
