* 1891 Koch Bird's Eye negative, labeled as soon after the "Great Fire". I acquired it at Seattle Public Library fundraising auction around 1990, about 4' wide x 3' tall, mounted on hard board, lots of city detail, including old Denny Hotel during time of regrade, as well as a distant undeveloped Green Lake in the background.
* circa 1950 Kroll large-format street map, about 3.5' wide x 5' tall. Shows a tiny Bellevue, naval bases, proposed extra landfill street additions on various waterfronts around Seattle, and various other archaic details including old street names and the absence of interstates and freeways. Mounted on acid-free foam, and comes with acrylic cover and wall-mount retainers.
