  San Bernardino Fiesta, 1910

  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.

  View of rush hour shows Los Angeles Railway trolley cars lined up on East Seventh Street

  Visual Materials

  Los Angeles' streets were still dominated by the trolley car when Dave Redinger opened a private engineering practice early in 1914. This view of rush hour shows Los Angeles Railway trolley cars lined up on East Seventh Street, waiting their turn to cross the equally busy Main Street. All of these trolleys, and much of downtown Los Angeles, was receiving electricity from the new Big Creek power plants.
