| Description |
English: After news of Klondike gold reached Seattle in July 1897, many of Seattle's stores joined the excitement and became gold rush outfitters. Cooper & Levy, just south of Pioneer Square, provided gold seekers with crates and sacks of flour, bacon, dried fruit, condensed milk, tea, soap, matches, and many other items needed for life in the north. This 1897 photo shows a group of gold seekers outside Seattle's Cooper & Levy grocery store on First Avenue South. Some of the men sit on sleds on top of their piled provisions; others stand in the street. They are ready to leave for the Seattle waterfront where they will board ship and head north to the gold fields. Original photograph: ca. 1897. Copied between 1912 and 1916 by Curtis & Miller.
