Title
English: Native Americans selling baskets, ca. 1912
Description
English: A number of Native American families earned money by selling baskets to Seattle's tourists and residents. In this photo, taken around 1912, two women and a boy sit by their baskets on Second Avenue, outside the Frederick & Nelson department store. This style of twined basket is still made by the Makah people of Neah Bay and the Nootkan people of Vancouver Island.
  • Subjects (LCTGM): Baskets; Frederick & Nelson; Indians of North America--Commerce--Washington (State)

The exact same three people can be seen on the cover of Picturesque Seattle and Puget Sound (Seattle Chamber of Commerce, c. 1915). Most likely that image is a photo collage incorporating elements of this photo. They also show up in File:Indian sidewalk vendors on Seattle's Second Avenue 1915.jpg, possibly a photo collage.
