Caption on image: X35. Looking east on Yukon Avenue.

  • Subjects (LCTGM): Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition (1909 : Seattle, Wash.)--Buildings--Washington (State)--Seattle
  • Subjects (LCSH): Exhibition buildings--Washington (State)--Seattle; Emblems--Washington (State)

Despite the postcard title, this is looking west. East would show the bandstand at Nome Circle and the Forestry Building straight ahead. To the west, correctly, there was no large structure straight ahead, though the picture here omits that you presumably could see into the Pay Streak amusements. (This postcard is a drawing, probably pre-dating the exposition, but a layout difference that basic must be an outright error, not just artistic license.)
