Description

From the materials for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition of 1909, held in Seattle.

Text: Continuation of "Points of Interest to Visitors Outside of the Exposition". Picture: "Union Station"; this is the station now known as King Street Station.

The list of (1909 Seattle) points of interest continues:

  • Alki Point. Still a tourist destination, although the hotel and natatorium mentioned here are long gone.
  • Observatories. Of the three mentioned, only the one in Volunteer Park survives as of 2009.
  • Luna Park. An amusement park at Duwamish Head. Most of it was gone in 1914; a natatorium lasted into the 1930s.
  • White City. At Madison Park; long gone.
  • West Seattle Beach. Not sure of which of the beaches this would have been; there are a lot of beaches along the West Seattle shore.
  • Fauntleroy Park. Not sure, but this might be the current Lincoln Park just north of Fauntleroy. Ferries to Vashon now leave from Fauntleroy.
  • Golden Gardens (park in nothern Ballard).

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
Note: This tag should not be used for sound recordings.PD-1923Public domain in the United States//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Souvenir_guide_of_the_Alaska-Yukon-Pacific_Exposition_-_held_at_Seattle,_Washington,_June_1st_to_October_-_Page_30.jpg

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
