  Lower Klamath River trip [ca. 1923]

  Visual Materials

  This collection contains approximately 10,000 photographs, negatives and ephemera created or compiled by Grace Nicholson (1877-1948), a collector and dealer of Native American and Asian arts and crafts in Pasadena, California. The bulk of the collection dates from 1903 to the 1920s and includes photograph albums and individual photographs with views of Native Americans of the Northwest Coast, California, and the Southwest of North America; pictures documenting Nicholson's basket collecting trips primarily between 1902 and 1912; images of Nicholson's stores and residences in Pasadena, including the building of the "Grace Nicholson Treasure House of Oriental Art" in the mid-1920s; and personal photographs of Nicholson, her family, friends, and associates. Nicholson's personal snapshots and photograph albums provide a valuable resource for studying Native American communities, particularly in Northern California, in the early 20th century. Many of the photographs depict daily life and include images of homes, community events, dances and rituals, families and children, and portraits. Most of these photographs were taken by Grace Nicholson or her assistant, Mr. Carroll S. Hartman, and are often accompanied by Nicholson's handwritten identifications.

  Series 1. Native Americans and Basket Collecting Trips

  Visual Materials

  This series contains nine photograph albums and many individual photographs. The majority of the photographs are of Native Americans of the Northwest Coast, California and the Southwest of North America. The photographs were taken by Grace Nicholson or her assistant, Mr. Carroll S. Hartman, on their travels to buy Indian baskets and other artifacts primarily between 1903 and 1912. Both Nicholson and Hartman took photographs during the trips, and some images depict the same scene, photographed with two different cameras and film sizes--possibly from cameras each was carrying. For this reason, attribution is dual: Photographs by Grace Nicholson/Carroll S. Hartman. There are also many postcards and commercial photographs with the photographers identified where known. Many people and places are identified on the backs of photos in Grace Nicholson's handwriting.
