On the deck of the steamer arriving at Catalina Island
Frasher, Burton Sr.
Photographic paper: Dops brand
This picture postcard was created by a process in which any photographer could take a "snapshot," deliver the negative to a photo developer and have it printed on a postcard backing. The special papers used for this process are indexed by brand and date, and the Dops papers used for this photograph were issued from 1925-1942, according to the letters bordering the stampbox on the back. In this case the photographer was the founder of Frasher's Fotos, Burton Frasher, Sr. (1888-1955), who traveled the western United States in search of photographs for his postcards. His number here is E2684.
