One large oblong silver gelatin photo folio sized 14 x 10.5 in. mounted on black studio board sized 17 x 10.5 in. bumping & chipping at corners minor edgewear to lower fore-edge of image & board spotting on verso of board still VG image w/ good contrast. A very nice and rare early large photograph of the nascent Portland Symphony Orchestra which in 1911/1912 elected their conductors on an ongoing basis and their rotation of conductor and concertmaster rotation was determined by drawing lots. The 1911-1912 season featured conductors Carl Denton John Bayley Harold Bayley and Mose Christensen with the Bayley’s and Christensen alternating. The PSO typically drew from the Vaudeville houses dance theatre’s and even silent movie theatre orchestras in order to fill out their number and this photo captures 50 artists performing on the Heilig Theatre stage. At the time the newly opened Heilig Theatre sported a 2/5 Kimball Pipe Organ and would operate as Heilig until 1929 then the Rialto Mayfair and finally the Fox before being demolished in 1997.
