Description
Photograph of a docked Washington-Vancouver ferry, Columbia River (?), ca.1905. Planks and debris line the bank around the dock where four men dressed in dark clothing approach the ferry. Two people, a man and a woman in light clothing seem to be tending to the tall, narrow cabin whose sign reads "Vancouver". Passengers stand along the railing at the top of the ferry.
