1890307318Constantinople Istanbul: Probably Sébah and Joaillier 1890. Perhaps the most well-known image from the photographer Pascal Sébah or his son Jean a view outside a Turkish coffee shop of a group of men drinking coffee and smoking. <br /> <br /> At the center of the image is a seated man with a white beard holding a cup in one hand and the hose of a hookah in the other. A waiter holds a glass-bottomed hookah for him. More men sit on either side of the central figure. However it is a man on the far right of the image staring fiercely at the camera a pipe in his mouth that adds drama to the scene returning the gaze of the viewer. This man and the waiter who are in front of the main row of men also add a nice compositional element dividing the foreground from the background a second image taken on the same day—based on the foliage and the shape of the knot of rope on the cafe wall—lacks these two elements and it is much less successful from an artistic perspective.<br /> <br /> Adding further interest to the careful view are the ghostly faces of two men inside the cafe who look at the scene through dusty windows. This photograph both documents a part of everyday life for men in Turkey but the subjects return the naked stare of the camera and look across space and time at the viewer of the photograph. It's an image whose meaning is as much about looking as seeing.<br /> <br /> While this image is titled in the negative it is not signed by the photographer. However other prints of this image are signed Sébah and Joaillier. The placement of that signature not present on this print over the left foot of the staring man suggests this is an earlier printing of the photograph. The quality of the print argues against this being printed from a copy negative. Those facts could argue that this could be an image by the founder of the firm the Turk Pascal Sébah 1823–1886. However Pascal is primarily known for his studio work. His son Jean took over the business and added Polycarpe Joallier as a partner soon after. They are much better known for outdoor street views hence the attribution to Sébah and Joaillier. An image with excellent tonality measuring 10-1/4 by 8-1/8 inches on a 14 by 11-7/8 mount. There is a bit of staining to the lower corners of the mount and the mount is slightly concave but overall this is an exceptional print of one of finest images from the best-known Turkish photography studio of its time. [Probably Sébah and Joaillier] unknown

1900214646Kyoto. Late Meiji 1900. Nine mounted studio photographs the images with some fading and spotting but overall in good condition the mounts worn and toned a few with occasional spotting: <br>Three large ensemble groups of women 21 x 26.5 cms mounted on embossed card two with the Kyoto studio stamps of Kiyokuan and the other Kobayashi; <br>One young cadets 21.8 x 27.1 cms with a glassine wrapper annotated with the names of the students; <br>One older cadets 21.7 x 27.1 cms the mount with a stamped border; <br>Two wedding couple and larger family group 19.3 x 13.4 cms and 21 x 26.4 cms in covered window mounts with the stamps of R. Kohno studio Kyoto each with manuscript annotations to the verso of the cover; <br>One formal family group 14.1 x 20.2 cms in a covered window mount stamped Central Studio Nagoya the front cover loose and worn manuscript annotations on the verso; <br>One 15.5 x 21.2 cms casual family group the mount with a greek key and foliated border worn and the image faded. <br>Five blank patient registration forms on fine paper in very good condition.<P> A collection of early 20th century photographs from a well-educated Japanese middle-class family. It is likely that they belonged to the family of a doctor named Tanaka Fusa who had a clinic in Nishio town in the Hazu district of Aichi Prefecture. The photos are accompanied by mid-20th century patient registration forms from Dr. Tanaka's clinic. <br> <br>Three of the photos show large group of women approximately 200 in total and were produced by the Kiyokuan Studio in Kyoto a studio established by Kobayashi Teisuke in 1900. They were most likely female high school students on their school excursion to Kyoto each adopting the same hair style Hisashigami style which was very fashionable among high school girls towards the end of the 19th century. Another family group photo bears the mark of well-known Meiji era Kyoto photographer Hori Masumi 1857-1911. Two later photos are of the wedding in the grounds of Kyoto's Heian Jingu of Ueki Ukichi and his bride Ujiko in May 1929. A Ueda Ukichi is listed as a law student at Kansai University in the early 1920s so this may be the same person. There is an early twentieth century photo of a group of schoolboys each carefully named on the covering tissue and a 1929 photo from a Nagoya studio of a group of dignitaries also individually named on the covering sheet.<P> <b>When referring to this item please quote stockid 214646</b> . unknown
1900141<p>South Bend Washington 1900. Very Good. Columbia Box and Lumber Co. General Merchandise and Loggers Supplies Staple and Fancy Groceries Photo on Board. Circa 1900 photo measuring 6.25 x 8 inches on 10 x 12 inch board. Loomis Studio written in pencil on verso of photo.<br /><br />Silver gel photo is in very condition with light silvering. Mounted on rust colored board which has light soiling and moisture damage which does not go into the photo. Verso is blank save for a light pencil annotation noting the photographer and location.<br /><br />The town of South Bend Washington was incorporated in 1890 and is the self-proclaimed oyster capital of the world. We find numerous newspaper references to the Columbia Box and Lumber Company especially in regard to lumber activities. This photo perhaps taken before a 4th of July parade showcases products sold at the Columbia Box and Lumber Company. It appears that the float has Hammonds Best Flour Sacks in addition to rows of merchandise including a display of MJB Coffee cans. The ton is located on the Willapa River and the store appears to be built entirely on a boardwalk. Classic photo of turn of the century Western Americana.</p>

1900List3340United States and the Philippines: West’s Studio and others 1900. Eight photographs mounted on heavy cardstock measuring 5 ½ x 6 ¼ inches and smaller. Some with manuscript captions verso. Some with manuscript captions verso. Some staining and damage to mounts especially at corners; overall excellent. A collection of eight photographs from the Spanish-American War with seven of stateside training camp scenes and one portrait of an unknown soldier taken at Fort McKinley near Manila. Three are captioned verso identifying their locations as Camp Presidio San Francisco; Camp Powers Augusta Maine now Camp Keyes; and Savannah Georgia likely Camp Onward. The latter photo which depicts a Thanksgiving scene also mentions in its caption that “Robert Golding was in the Army in Savannah at that time.†Golding from Eastport Maine was in Company I of the 2nd Infantry Regiment; interviews with Golding about his life and experience in the war are available from the American Folklore Society. Note that the portrait does not appear to be of Golding. Besides Thanksgiving shots include several of soldiers posing in front of their tents one of a haircut at the Presidio and an excellent shot from Augusta of a soldier being tossed in the air on a makeshift trampoline. Of interest to historians of the Spanish-American War and US training camps from the time. West’s Studio and others unknown

Millet for more than one million photographs.<br /> He also received other lucrative commissions including international orders for educational lantern slides. His work won many domestic and international awards. Tamamura's photographic enterprise was a huge commercial success.
