189160747Portland OR & Ilwaco WA: Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. McAlpin & Lamb W. Morrison July 1891. Oblong albumen photo sized 9.5 x 7 in. mounted on cream-coloured studio board sized 8 x 10 in. slight curving still a superb exemplar from the library of from the library of Caroline Augusta Gray Kamm 1840-1932 noted socialite and philanthropist in Portland built home for poor women & girls with the YWCA and was daughter of PNW pioneer William H. Gray 1810-1889 who traveled to the Lapwai Mission in Lewiston ID in 1836 where he was the Nez Perce secular agent and she subsequently later married Jacob Kamm 1823-1912 pioneering Oregon steamship builder industrialist entrepreneur and co-owner/operator of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. This outstanding original albumen photo was issued as a promotion for the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. and the soon-to-be-launched Sidewheeler Ocean Wave. Designed by Jacob Kamm the Ocean Wave was 180 feet long 29 feet at the beam and depth of hold at 9 feet with a much larger deck which was cantilevered out to accommodate the side-wheeler configuration and grossed 725 tons. She was powered by two James Rees & Co. steam engines 24 foot sidewheels fitted with 10 foot planks over 10 feet long and capable of 18 miles per hour. She included enough state room accommodations for 115 passengers and berths for 75 more. Her first captain was Lester Bailey and the Ocean Wave was a vital link to the short narrow gauge railroad on the Long Beach Peninsula which transported vacationers from Portland to Ilwaco WA with a stop in Astoria. In 1897 Kamm’s co-owner of the IR &N maneuvered to lease out the Ocean Wave to the Columbia River & Puget Sound Navigation Co. “White Line†to compete with Kamm’s Vancouver Transportation Co. then operated on the Puget Sound from 1897 to 1899 and finally as a ferry operating in San Francisco Bay from 1899 to 1911 and was the first ferry placed in service by the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railway.

190061672Hamilton MT: Hageman & Moore Photographers ca. 1900. One oblong boudoir-sized albumen photograph 8 x 5 in. mounted on beige-coloured studio board sized 11 x 6.75 in. w/ photographer’s imprint stamped on verso minor age toning & slight soiling to fore-edges minor wear & rubbing to corners still VG bright sharp image. Sheep raising was actually introduced into Montana’s Bitterroot Valley by Catholic Missionary Father De Smet and over the 19th-Century often grew in concert with cattle raising with many ranches maintaining both herds. Following the disastrous Winter of 1886-1887 in which thousands of cattle died off sheep ranching became the predominant stock shipped into and out of Montana as they not only handled the Montana Winters well they cost much less to raise and wool was a significant commodity. Hageman 1872-1944 had settled in Montana in 1896 and started operating as a photographer in the Bitterroot Valley by 1898 later partnering with Moore 1869-1955 for a short time in a photo studio in 1890 before both went out on their own by 1891 with Hageman operating as photographer until his death and Moore going first to Missoula and then Los Angeles.
