Title
English: Steamship TAMPICO docked at Seattle wharf, ca. 1906
Description
English:

  • Subjects (LCSH): Tampico (Ship); Ships--Washington (State)--Seattle; Crowds--Washington (State)--Seattle; Piers & wharves--Washington (State)--Seattle

Pier 4 was renumbered as Pier 55 in 1944. Other photos clearly from the same day:

(Joe Mabel is working with University of Washington visual material librarian Susan Fitch to get the metadata right for this.)

The Tampico was chartered in 1907 by the Pacific Coast Steamship Co. for coast service, and sank at the Pacific Coast Coal Co. bunkers in Seattle at midnight, May 18, 1911. (pg. 66, pg. 138, pg. 197) Notes from Gordon Newell, ed., The H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest (Seattle: Superior Publishing Co, 1966)." So we can narrow the date to that timespan.
