Title
English: Portage Bay with view of Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, Seattle, 1909
Description
English: In this photo of Portage Bay the fair grounds for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition are visible on the site that later became the University of Washington.

The brothers Clarence R. and Otto Langstaff were prolific amateur photographers in Seattle. Clarence (1880-1941) worked as a carpenter and also spent time at Mt. Rainier as a guide. Otto (1883-1969) worked for W.P. Fuller Company as a glazier and was a member of United Glass Union #188. Because most of their photos are not signed, it is often difficult to discern which brother was behind the camera.
