Taber, Isaiah W
Alley in Chinatown S.F. Cal. B 1
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1890. Near fine. A brown toned albumen silver print of one of one of Taber's most enigmatic views of San Francisco's always bustling Chinatown—an improbably empty alley with a ghostly image of a child at the intersection of two streets. <br /> <br /> Taber obviously retouched the negative to remove figures from the upper part of the alley leaving faint ghosts behind and indistinct details. The child appears to have been added to insert an element of drama to the scene. The business sign on the left side of the street was enhanced in the negative by someone who did not know how to write Chinese characters.<br /> <br /> 4-7/8 by 8 inches on a slightly larger modern thin paper mount. Captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. This image has brown tones with good contrast. Taber Photo unknown

Chinatown S.F. Cal. The Five Idols in the Holy of Holies in the Joss Temple of Lung Gong B 2699
San Francisco: I. W. Taber Pho. Photographer 1887. Fine. An unmounted imperial cabinet card-sized albumen silver print of five idols in a Chinatown temple. Most likely this is the temple at 9 Brooklyn Place off of Sacrament Street where the Lung Gong Association Longgang gongsuo; now the Lung Kong Tin Yee Association had its headquarters in the late 1880s. This image is dated 1887 in the negative an unusual feature of Taber photographs from this period. <br /> <br /> 9-3/8 by 7-1/4 inches. Captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. A fine image a bit faded around the edges but with excellent focus and contrast. Never mounted. I. W. Taber Pho.

Chinese Joss-House S. F. Cal. B 529
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1880. Near fine. An albumen photograph 4-13/16 by 7-15/16 inches of the exterior of a Chinese church in San Francisco. The building is two stories with a central entrance up a short flight of stone stairs. The second floor has a narrow balcony decorated with hanging plants and paper lanterns. <br /> <br /> This is one of several images by Isaiah Taber of this temple. This view is taken at a slight angle to the front of the building. The sign over the door identifies this as a temple to many Cantonese deities 列è–宫 transliterated as Leishenggong Lit Sing Gond Lie Sheng Gong etc meaning joss house.<br /> <br /> This view is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. This image is included in Taber's ca. 1889 catalog of the images available for purchase in his gallery. Nice image; mount trimmed. Taber Photo unknown

Chinese Restaurant S. F. Cal. B 5
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1880. Very good. Albumen photograph 4-13/16 by 7-15/16 inches of the interior of a Chinese restaurant showing the entry hall opening out into the dining room which has tables and chairs but no people. <br /> <br /> This view is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. This image is listed in Taber's ca. 1889 catalog. The upper portion of the restaurant view is washed out as usual with this image not affecting any important details. The mount has been trimmed close to the image. The verso of the mount has glue residue perhaps due to removal from an album. Taber Photo unknown

Clay Street Hill Chinatown San Francisco B 3096
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1880. Near fine. A very nice ninethenth century albumen street scene photograph of San Francisco's Chinatown. <br /> <br /> This photograph shows a sunlit Clay Street looking down hill possibly from just below Stockton Street. A Chinese man in a work apron is walking in the foreground facing the camera. Other men walk away from Taber's lens or cross the street as the Clay St. Hill Railroad cable car no. 2 reaches the intersection. Signs for two businesses are clearly visible on the right hand side. The tall vertical sign in the immediate foreground advertises Yuantang's 元堂 shop with medicinal herbs from various provinces of China. A sign farther back at the corner of the next street advertises Tai Ning Tong 太寧堂 another Chinese medicine shop.<br /> <br /> This is an albumen silver prints on thin photographic paper roughly 4-7/8 by 7-9-16 inches captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. This image is included in Taber's ca. 1889 catalog of images available in his gallery. This image has very good contrast with better detail than the previous version of this print I have had. This print is not mounted but it has small surface scars on the verso leaving the already-thin paper even thinner but intact in a few places. Taber Photo unknown

Taber, Isaiah W
Dupont Street Restaurant S.F. Cal. 4764
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1890. Near fine. An unmounted imperial cabinet card-sized albumen silver print of the exterior of the Hang Fer Lo restaurant and the Colombo cigar factory on Dupont Street between Sacramento and Clay Streets in San Francisco's Chinatown.<br /> <br /> Hang Fer Lo was the leading Chinese restaurant in the city before the earthquake. It operated on two floors above the cigar factory. This image probably dates from the 1890s it is not in Taber's 1889 catalog of images. A small area of the Colombo sign has been painted over adding the words "Bong Mon Cigar Factory." At the time there was some prejudice against Chinese-made cigars. In 1887 the Oroville Weekly Mercury August 5 issue ran an article criticizing a business owner in Chico California for selling Colombo brand cigars instead of "white labor cigars."<br /> <br /> The upper floors of the building belong to the Chinese restaurant and are adorned with paper lanterns plants and carved decorations. A sign reading "restaurant" is visible at the top center of the image.<br /> <br /> 7-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches. Captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. A near fine image with a bit of creasing. Never mounted. Taber Photo unknown

God in Joss Temple Chinatown S.F. Cal. 4769
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1890. Ephemera. Very good. A medium format photograph possibly a gelatin silver print of an altar with a bearded god statue. The statue is decorated with peacock feathers placed on a carved wooden altar. Pots and urns of various sizes sit on the altar in front of the idol.<br /> <br /> 7-3/4 by 9-3/4 inches. The photograph is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. This image is not listed in Taber's ca. 1889 catalog of images. The image is sharp and has good gray tonal range. It is mounted on thin white cardstock possibly contemporary with the photograph but trimmed in recent times near the edge of the image. The mount and photograph are somewhat wavy. Taber Photo unknown

Grand Dining Room of the Chinese Restaurant Washington Street San Francisco B 5398
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1890. Near fine. Albumen photograph 4-7/8 by 8 inches of a large Chinese restaurant in San Francisco before the earthquake probably the restaurant at 824-826-828 Washington Street. The restaurant may have been called Chun Sun; a restaurant with that name operated at 826 Washington Street in 1892 according to a San Francisco Examiner newspaper notice about a small fire there 14 July. <br /> <br /> This view is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. This image is not included in Taber's ca. 1889 list of images available at his gallery and thus likely dates from the early 1890s. A fine example on a slightly larger modern cardstock mount.

Grand Dining Room of the Chinese Restaurant Washington Street San Francisco 3009
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1880. Near fine. An unmounted imperial cabinet card-sized albumen silver print of a large room in a Chinese restaurant empty of people. The room is decorated with carvings and hanging scroll paintings. <br /> <br /> This view may have been taken inside the restaurant at 824-826-828 Washington Street the only restaurant on Washington Street in the 1885 map of Chinatown published in San Francisco's municipal reports. In 1892 a restaurant called Chun Sun was located at 826 based on a report of a fire that ran in the July 14 San Francisco Examiner. Restaurants appear to have occupied that address during much of the 20th century continuing to the present day.<br /> <br /> 9-7/16 by 7-7/16 inches. Captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. A near fine image a bit faded at the edges but with good focus and contrast. Never mounted. Taber Photo unknown

Taber, Isaiah West
Photograph State Capitol Building Sacramento California
San Francisco: Taber 1890. White card mount. Very good very faint fading mainly to the sky. 9 x 7.5 inch image on x 10 x 8 inch card. Albumen photograph. "6359 State Capitol Sacramento Cal." in negative at lower edge. Isaiah West Taber 1830-1912 bounced between the east and west coasts as a youth. After opening his first studio in Syracuse New York he returned to California where he eventually established the "Taber Gallery" at No. 12 Montgomery Street in 1871. His business was quite successful with a stock of over 30000 Western views though many were the unacknowledged works of others. When the San Francisco earthquake led to the destruction of his vast collection his business folded. This image is not at Berkeley nor on Calisphere but is similar to "The Capitol Sacramento Cal. B 2369" at Berkeleyexcept this image is taken closer to the entrance with people in the distance at the steps and provides a more powerful view. Taber unknown

Taber, Isaiah W
Provision Market in Alley in Chinatown San Francisco B 2689
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1880. Ephemera. Fine. A terrific 19th century Chinatown albumen photograph that offers an interesting contrast to Taber's many well-known photographs of Cheong Wo & Co. a butcher shop that was located nearby. This view was just a half-block away at the corner of Washington Street and the Washington Place alley. The shops in this photo are grittier and less-well tended.<br /> <br /> Taber managed to catch a poultry butcher at the far left in a beam of light. Directly in front of him a fast-moving pedestrian is just a blur. A number of Chinese men stand on the sidewalk or walk down the alley. Instead of the elaborate displays of Cheong Wo most of the merchants on this street have only small round tables of goods in front of their stores. Piles of crates and boxes line one side of the alley. <br /> <br /> Taber's 1889 catalog of images includes four labeled "provision market." One is identified as negative 2869; that may be the same as this image with two numbers transposed.<br /> <br /> The albumen print measures 9-1/2 by 7-1/2 inches and is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. A very good print a bit over exposed in the center where sunlight falls on the alley some prints have better contrast in this portion of the image. There is a bit of discoloration on the left margin of the photograph which is otherwise near fine. Never mounted. Taber Photo unknown

Street Scene. Chinatown S.F. Cal. B 3667
San Francisco: Taber Photo 1890. Good. An albumen silver print of Dupont Street in San Francisco with the Hang Fer Lo restaurant in the center. <br /> <br /> This was the leading Chinese restaurant in San Francisco before the earthquake. It operated on two floors above Columbo & Co. Cigars at 713 Dupont St. on the border of Little Italy and Chinatown. The Columbo sign is just legible in the image it can be matched to Taber photo 4764 which offers a close-up view of the restaurant. This image includes the street-level sign in Chinese characters which appears to offer vegetarian meals in addition to standard Chinese cuisine.<br /> <br /> 4-7/8 by 7-15/16 inches on a slightly larger modern thin paper mount. Captioned in the negative in a narrow strip along the bottom of the image. Two cracks in the image are colored in to minimize the breaks; the lower right corner of the image is a bit washed out. Good only. Taber Photo unknown

Taber, Isaiah West & Charles Pollock, et al
Vues de l'Amerique album of original photographs
1890. Oblong 4to. 10.5" x 15.5". With 26 albumen prints mounted recto only on thick card landscape and portrait format approximately from 195 x 260 to 124 x 200 mm. or the reverse. 12 captioned in the negative by Taber's studio 3 captioned in the negative by Pollock's studio 14 photographs captioned on the mount in ink in French. The photographs are beautifully presented in a contemporary red morocco binding likely collected by a French traveller. Leather slightly mottled with a few faint marks neatly recolored in places mounts slightly foxed and cockled a few photographs with marginal silver mirroring or faint surface abrasions. Else a near fine copy. An excellent photographic record of San Francisco and Yosemite by the multitalented photographer Isiah West Taber. The album also contains evocative images of New York Washington DC and Niagara Falls with some by the Boston-based photographer Charles Pollock. The adventurous Taber 1830-1912 arrived in San Francisco at the beginning of the gold rush in 1849. Quickly deciding there was more money in trade than digging for gold Taber eventually established his photography studio in San Francisco during which time he acquired the entire archive of the landscape photographer Carleton Watkins. In 1888 he was appointed a Yosemite commissioner in appreciation of his work to spread its beauty. Sadly Taber's studio was destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fired with an estimated loss of about 20 tons of view negatives and 80 tons of portrait negatives; he never reopened his gallery. <br /> <br /> The photograph album shows images of San Francisco including Market Street Cliff House and an attractive birdseye view. In Yosemite the photographs by Taber show El Capitan Table Rock and Mariposa Grove. The section of photographs of East Coast America includes the White House Capitol Brooklyn Bridge and Niagara in both summer and winter. Three images of New York are by Pollock 1828-1900 who specialized in celebrity portraiture. unknown
