Scope and content
- Ezra Meeker stands beside his wagon, with driver William Mardon, oxen Twist and Dave, and a few curious bystanders. An ornate Portland mansion rises behind them. The banner on Meeker's wagon indicates that this photo was taken on the first of his two wagon re-crossings of the Oregon Trail between 1906-1912. The banner exclaims that he "left Puyallup near Tacoma Jan. 29th 1906", and is headed for Washington D.C. It also advertises the series of post cards he offers for sale.
- Printed on front: A typical Residence Portland, Oregon.
