2003.0027.0009Description
One single-sided glass panel from a collection of 9 gilded and decorated glass panels created by George C. Brooke, Portland, OR, around 1870. This panel depicts an early photograph of the maker and reads, "The End".
The set was acquired with its binding broken, so each was mounted in a wooden frame and installed, in page order, on a display case via a spindle system so "pages" of album could be turned. Original album is also on display.Collection
