Hotel Penbrook & Apartments

May 14th, 2009 by Cliffe | Sorted Past Post | 10 Comments »
This building, better known as the Leamington Hotel and Apartments, is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. Who can explain the wildly different appearance of the building halves in this postcard/this photo and the look of it now? Specifically, the corner of the building goes from 4 windows to 3.

Past Post: Buford Sandquist, All Whipped Up

May 4th, 2009 by Cliffe | Sorted Past Post | 7 Comments »
If nothing else, these old postcards can be used in place of a baby name book. Buford Sandquist. If your last name just happens to be Sandquist, then I think your next child just found it’s name. The other nice thing about the postcards is that you get to find out more about the state you live in. As of 2009 Silvana, Washington had a land area of 1.5 squ are miles

Perhaps one of our readers from the library staff can look up where this was located. The author writes:
Dear friends, We got home safely, and papa got our telegram in time to meet us. We just managed to catch that 4:30 train from Portland. Wasn’t it lucky? Our trunks did not come for a whole weekend and one of them was all smashed to pieces. They think th at they were in a wreck. But nothing was lost or damaged so it is all right. I have made up most of my school work. How do you feel after your trip? W. Shaw.

Dear Hate Remibold 1909

Once again, the A.Y.P. Expo anniversary is coming up this summer. At first glance, I read the name on the back of this “official postcard” of the Expo as “Hate Remibold.” Best name ever, perhaps

The Indians’ Potlatch is a great feast given by the chief to all of the tribes round about, whence the guests return to their tepees laden with gifts after a week of almost profligate hospitality. Seattle has expanded the definition to cover its magnificent annual spectacle. “The Golden Potlatch,” which is, in its every feature, a “free” feast spread for the whole world and its brother.
