Scope and Content
Photograph of a house identified as belonging to Mr. Patterson. There is a discrepancy as to which Mr. Patterson the house belongs to. The accession register suggests the house is D.C. Patterson's house, while the inscription on the photograph suggests it is B. (Bruce) Patterson's. The house is two storeys tall, with a balcony on the second floor. There are long cloth blinds on the second floor windows, and two people on the balcony. One of them (identified as B. Patterson) is holding the lower cloth blinds. There is a foot path lined with rocks winding around the house. There is also a discrepancy as to where the house is located. The inscription suggests the house was at Patterson Avenue, while the catalogue record suggests that the house was in the Edmonds area. An annotation on the back of the photo reads: "B. Patterson's 1st house at Patterson Ave: holding lower cloth blinds."
