Photograph album of Northern California residence and grounds
Visual Materials
A family photograph album with snapshots of a large residence, smaller dwellings and extensive grounds, in what appears to be the San Francisco Bay Area, California. There are many views of a main house and details of landscaping, woods, and vegetation, with several close-ups of harvested fruit and vegetables. Unidentified men, women and children appear in scenes on the property, and children are seen swimming in an unusual above-ground concrete swimming pool next to a small house with bamboo siding and fencing. The album begins with photographs of a street and long driveway, with the address "2000" on a stone. The main house pictured is a large Swiss-chalet style residence, with some elements of Arts and Crafts style architecture, situated on a hill, with a view. Interior views show rich furnishings, tapestries, and a large kitchen with canning jars set out for fruit. The house and its residents are unidentified.

Photograph album of Japanese American residents of California
Visual Materials
A photograph album dating from the early 1920s reflecting the life of an unidentified Japanese American family based in or near the agricultural community of Brawley, in Imperial County, California. "Brawley Bottling Works" crates are seen in an image of Japanese American farm workers, and other images include the interior of a canned goods store, agricultural workers and crops, farm trucks, and a man with plants in a greenhouse. The album contains snapshots of many different Japanese American men, women, and children, almost always dressed in fine Western clothing, seen in social gatherings in mostly rural settings, with some images of other locations. The album doesn't have any identifications, though recognizable locations in California are: the Sacramento Capitol building; the beach in Venice; a bookstore with a crate marked First Street, Los Angeles; and men posing with automobiles with license plates that say "CAL." Notable images are a group portrait of men clowning around while drinking beer, and ceremonial outdoor gatherings with American and Japanese flags flying. Photographs taken in Japan include a Christian church and school in the Tadanoumi area of Hiroshima Prefecture, and family groups with people wearing both Japanese and Western clothing.
