Two bound photograph albums made by Jessie Palmer Ashby Anderson in the early part of the twentieth century. The rectangular gray paper album has cyanotypes of the Arthur Pickett family and Arthur's siblings at the beach, probably taken around 1910. Only one or two photographs have accompanying names written in by the donor. This album also contains photographs of Arthur as a soldier at Fort Wright, KY.
The hard cover green album has more photographs of the Anderson family on vacation at the beach. A few photographs have names associated, but many do not and are undated. This album appears to focus on "The Bungalow" in Wamphassuc and has many happy photographs of the family enjoying their beach cottage and the land around it.Collection
