| Description |
Narrow booklet designed for mailing like a postcard, but instead of just one picture, there is a booklet full of 12 pictures inside. The interior photos are in black and white of famous landmarks along the
Astoria and Columbia River Railroad line from Portland to Seaside: Clatsop Beach, Youngs Bay, Tongue Point, Astoria Harbor, Gearhart Park, Seaside, Tillamook Rock, Tillamook Lighthouse, Pyramid Rock, Haystack Rock, Railway Traveling Passenger Agents Association.This booklet was sent by Mrs. Frank I. Dunbar "Auntie Lilly." Her full name was Lillian Crosby Dunbar, wife of Frank I. Dunbar. She sent the post book to her "dear little nieces," Dorothy and Frances Dunbar, daughters of Albert and Minna Sherman Dunbar. The Dunbars were influential businessmen in Astoria's early city. Frank Dunbar was Secretary of State for Oregon from 1899 - 1907. Both brothers took jobs in Astoria city government. Albert managed a mercantile business as well. Dorothy was valedictorian at Astoria High School in 1914. She later married Lloyd B. Dysart and moved to Centralia, WA. Frances's whereabouts are more difficult to determine. Dorothy and Frances are mentioned in many social accounts in newspapers of the time. In Aunt Lilly's letter, Lilly thanks the girls for the marmalade and bread, and tells them that their Uncle Frank will be visiting from Salem. The letter is written on the inside front cover and the inside back cover in cursive.Size of book: 3.5" x 7" |

[edit]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:
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.  | ||||
