Tollman and Canaris PhotographsThese photographs by two little known photographers document the salmon fishing industry on the southern Washington coast and in the lower Columbia River around the year 1897 and offer valuable insights into the history of commercial salmon fishing and the techniques used at the beginning of the 20th century. About the Database
The information for Tollman and Canaris Collection was researched and prepared by the UW Libraries Special Collections Division staff in January 2000. Research, writing, and image scanning were done by Kristin Kinsey.
Not all the photographs from the collection were included in this database: the database consists of 61 digital images chosen
from a group of over 68 photographic prints. The photographs were scanned in grayscale using a Microtek Scanmaker 9600L and saved in .jpg format. Some manipulation of the images was done 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 Tollman and Canaris Collection no. 293. |
