The Klondike Gold Rush made Seattle the dominant city in the Pacific
Northwest, as the major supplier to Alaska. The goal of the 1909
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition (AYPE) was to show off the growth and
development of the Pacific Northwest, specifically Seattle, and to display the
value of commercial trade with the Pacific Rim. When Japan agreed to
participate, the AYPE became a truly international, multi-cultural event, which
planners of the AYPE hoped would demonstrate cooperation between people from
around the world. On a less philosophical level, city officials also hoped that
the exposition would encourage people to relocate to the growing metropolis of
Seattle.
Officials soon decided on the largely wooded grounds of the University
of Washington, situated on Lake Washington, with Mount Rainier visible in the
distance. The first $650,000 for the AYPE was raised by proud Seattleites, who
bought “shares” of the exposition. Much of the rest was funded by
the sale of public lands and by the Washington State legislature, with the
understanding that the buildings built for the exposition would become part of
the University of Washington at the end of the AYPE. John and Frederick
Olmsted, son and stepson of Frederick Law Olmsted, prominent landscape
architects in their own right, designed much of the AYPE grounds.
Thanks to two years of planning and the huge sums of money raised, the
AYPE grounds and exposition were everything the planners had hoped for. It was
a fascinating mix of ethnic diversity and crass commercialism, but it clearly
appealed to the people of the United States. Over 80,000 people attended the
AYPE on opening day in June 1909, and by closing day (October 16, 1909) 3.7
million people had paid to see attractions such as the Igorrote Village, and
the Indian and Eskimo exhibits. They had seen animals built out of fruits and
nuts, and rode on the Fairy Gorge Tickler. The AYPE had been a huge success.
Seattle officials were pleased to note that the AYPE had drawn 700,000 people
more than the 1905 Lewis and Clark Exposition had attracted in the rival city
of Portland, Oregon.
Although the Exposition boasted its own official photographer, amateur
photographers could purchase a paper permit, allowing access for one day. With
the day pass, an amateur photographer with a camera smaller than 6" x 8" was
allowed to take unlimited photographs of the buildings, exhibits and other
features. A great many photographers, such as A.C. Warner, Goetze and the Oakes
Photo Company used this opportunity to take photographs and turn them into
postcards.
The collection consists of series of photographic postcards created by
various publishers and photographers of the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Exposition in Seattle. The postcards depict AYPE buildings, grounds, visitors
and events
The collection is open to the public.
Restrictions may exist on reproduction, quotation, or publication.

Postcards within each series were numbered with the original number
written on the postcards, when this was available. Some of postcards within a
series did not have original numbers; in order to identify and locate them,
these postcards were assigned numbers and placed at the beginning of the
relevant publisher or photographer series.
