Summary

Description

Page 144 of brochure Seattle and the Orient (1900). This page includes text plus a group of five oval portraits in cruciform arrangement with a hand-drawn decorative background, collectively captioned "Members of the Schwabacher Hardware Co. and Schwabacher Brothers." Schwabacher Brothers were Seattle's (and the regions) leading wholesale grocers of the time; they also owned a wharf and one of the city's most prominent hardware stores.

The pictures are also individually captioned.

  • At top: "Sigismund Schwabacher"
  • Middle row (left to right): "Sigismund Aronson", "James S. Goldsmith", "George Boole"
  • At bottom: "N. Eckstein" (that is presumably Nathan Eckstein, after whom a Seattle Public Schools middle school is now named).
