San Francisco: Taber Photo, 1887. Ephemera. Fine. One of Taber's best-known images of Chinatown in San Francisco, an image of the open storefront of the Cheong Wo & Co. shop at 847 Dupont Street (at the corner of Washington Street).
In this image, three clerks stand at the front of the store; another person is seated in the background; and two more peer in a side window to watch the photographer. The front of the shop has produce on display; various kinds of meat hang in an open window.
This original print-from the glassplate negative-is not as dark as some versions of the image so part of the sign reading "...ong Wo & Co." is visible on the back wall of the store. In another view of this building, which was a favorite of Taber's, the store sign in English is visible above the door. This more intimate view does not include that part of the building.
The albumen photograph measures 9-3/8 by 7-7/16 inches and is captioned in the image in a narrow strip along the bottom of the print. A terrific print, with excellent tonal range which reveals details of the interior of the shop that were often lost when the negative was printed darker. This is an unmounted print in fine condition.

[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 30,000 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 Berkeley)except this image is taken closer to the entrance, with people in the distance at the steps, and provides a more powerful view.

San Francisco, 1890. Original black & white photograph of "Elisabeth Porter Gilbert, Grannie" (handwritten on verso), printed on heavy cream cardstock (5" x 4") with bevelled edges; "Taber S.F" blindstamped in lower right corner. The Taber name and business address of 121 Post Street, San Francisco stamped on verso. Lower left corner lightly bumped; list spotting. Elisabeth Porter Gilbert was borni in 1869 (maiden name Elisabeth Porter Russel) and died in 1949 in Carmel, CA. She was married to Charles Ransom Gilbert. Ms. Gilbert is a striking young woman in the photograph so it most likely was taken circa 1890.

San Francisco: I. W. Taber & Co., n.d. [circa 1880-1890]. Original photograph, 7 5/8 x 9 5/8”, b&w albumen print, mounted on board. Original board is delicate and chipping along the edges; good. § Original photo from San Francisco I. W. Taber & Co., at 26 Montgomery Street, marked B 2598. Taber is known for his commercial photographs and albums of California, though many of his photos of Yosemite were reproduced from the photos of Carleton Watkins, whose studio he took over after it was lost to creditors. He lost his own studio, gallery, and negative collection in the 1906 earthquake, thus ending his career.

San Francisco: Taber Photo., [ca. 1885].. Two albumen prints, each approximately 7¾ x 9½ inches and mounted on card stock 11½ x 14 inches. Images a bit faded. Mounts lightly soiled and wavy. Upper left corner of mount of second image with a small chip. Overall very good. Two photographs of elegant Chinese restaurants in pre-earthquake San Francisco Chinatown, likely taken in the mid-1880s. The first photograph depicts the Woey Sin Low restaurant's third-floor balcony, looking past hanging glass lanterns and an ornately carved wooden window onto the corner of Dupont and Clay Streets. In front of the restaurant, a hanging banner reads "Baobàn jiuxí," advertising that the establishment can host and arrange banquets. The second photograph has been identified as the grand dining room at another restaurant just around the corner on Washington Street, called Bun Sun Low. After a fire in 1885, Bun Sun Low's dining room was renovated into the dramatic space pictured here, with hanging chandeliers and…

San Francisco: Taber Photo., [ca. 1892].. Albumen print, 9½ x 7¾ inches (27½ x 19½ cm). Mounted on larger piece of card stock, 14 x 11½ inches (35½ x 29½ cm) overall. The image bright and crisp. Mount a bit foxed, minor scuffing. Very good plus. A striking candid photograph of the entrance to an underground opium den in turn-of-the-century San Francisco. A searingly bright camera flash has illuminated the dark room, revealing a two-level structure with barred internal windows and signs posted in Chinese on or near heavy wooden doors. A Chinese man looks at the photographer in confusion, evidently startled by the bright magnesium flash, and another man walks away from the camera towards the entrance. The photograph, copyrighted by the prolific San Francisco Taber Photograph Company, is subtitled "Approach to an underground Opium Den; Chinaman astonished at the Flash-light. No. 7." This print is of a larger size than the cabinet card prints of Taber's that are usually encountered. Curiously…
