1920ref. 64773Portland OR: Shaver Transportation; Sowell Studio Photos 145 1/2 3rd St. ca. 1920. Three oblong folio original silver gelatin photographs sized 14 x 9.75 in. all w/ photographer’s rubber stamp on verso two w/in negative at lower fore-edge very slight age toning minor shelfwear a couple corners creased still an excellent set of three. These scarce three large original silver gelatin photographs depict the expanding fleet of tugboats from the Shaver Transportation Company from before World War I into the Roaring 20’s. Those depicted here included the “Hercules” the “Cascades” originally built by the US Army Corps of Engineers for constructing the Cascade Locks and used by the Shaver Company until World War II; the historic “Henderson” wooden-hulled sternwheeler first built in 1901 as freight carrier and towboat operated for decades towing log rafts pushing barges and by 1950 was one of the last two wooden-hulled sternwheelers working the river and starred in the “River Queen” film in 1952; the “Sarah Dixon” another sternwheeler named for George Shaver’s wife; and the “No Wonder” originally built in Portland in 1889 from dismantled components from the 1877 Wonder and served as workhorse for the log-towing operations until retired and abandoned in 1933. Also depicted are the tugs such as the “James W” designed by Captain Delmar Shaver owned by the Shaver Transportation Co. powered by a direct-reversible 350 Atlas Diesel engine with electrically powered monkey rudder system and during the height of the Kaiser World War II shipyard boom she worked around the clock as she was built for speed and minimal wake effect eventually being retired by the company in the 1950’s. Also featured are the “Echo” which was the Shaver Transportation Co.’s first propeller-driven gasoline-powered boat as well as the large Shaver sternwheeler which later was converted into a twin-screw semi-tunnel diesel tug. Founded originally in 1880 by George Washington Shaver and partner’s as the People’s Freighting Co. with their steamboat Manzanillo the company was later incorporated in 1893 as Shaver Transportation by George with his two sons James and George and by the post-World War I era as depicted in these photos had expanded to 7 and then 10 tugs and their diesel power and scientific hull designs dominated Pacific Northwest waterways towing. Gustin 1884-1959 began as a photographer in The Dalles and then Pendleton before established as photographer and proprietor of Sowell Studio formerly Simon-Sowell Studio in 1914-1916 and operated as a photographer for the next three decades. Simon 1890-1986 became the manager for the Sowell Studio sometime in the early 1920’s and continued as professional photographer until his later retirement.
