Souvenir Spokane

Shaw & Borden Co., Spokane, WA

Original publisher's brown paper wrappers with light blue string binding. Black and yellow illustration and tipped-in black-and-white portrait illustration (perhaps of Chief Joseph) on front cover. Two pages are unopened. No date, circa 1905. 10 1/2" x 7." Unpaginated, forty-six pages, complete. Many black-and-white illustrations (many of which are photographic illustrations), complete. Small retailer's ticket tipped in on title page (obscures publication information) belonging to "R. L. Dodd" of Spokane (perhaps contemporary with this publication). Pages are very clean and intact except for the retailer's ticket, light age toning, slight wrinkling, and occasional faint stains or dampstains. Covers are clean and intact overall but have moderate fading on front and back (most apparent on front) and insides of covers, slight rippling, and slight wear and a few small bumps to extremities. A Very Good copy. Charming souvenir booklet featuring scenes in and around Spokane, Washington. Principally black-and-white illustrations, most of which have very brief captions simply noting what the subject is. Among the subjects shown in the illustrations are Spokane Falls, Coeur d'Alene Park, Fort Wright, Spokane County Courthouse, Riverside Avenue, Spokane River, the Review Building, Gonzaga College, various Spokane public schools, Spokane churches, Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce, Chief Gray Eagle of the Spokanes, portraits of other people from the Nez Perce and Spokane tribes, Hangman Creek, Monroe Street Cantilever Bridge, Howard Street Bridge, Lower Falls and Post Street Bridge, and Natatorium Park..
