Architecture - First Annual Exhibition, Los Angeles Architectural Club

Description

Eight mounted photographic prints of interior and exterior of architectural structures including houses and churches. The prints were photographed by multiple photographers including Thomas Ellison, Leon E. Dadmun, and William T. Clark. Two of the prints include a stamp for the architectural firm Cram, Goodhue, and Ferguson on the verso of their mounts, and it is likely each building photographed in this collection was designed by Cram, Goodhue, and Ferguson. One print includes a sticker on the verso of the mount denoting it as an exhibit for the First Annual Exhibition of the Los Angeles Architectural Club in 1907. Each print is labeled with a handwritten "N" or "B" on the verso of the mount, indicating the section of the exhibition they would have been displayed in.
