Other versions Image:Seattle_and_the_Orient_p106.jpg is the full page. Image:Seattle - G.W. Stetson residence - 1900 - 2 pics.jpg just shows the photos and decoration. The individual photos are Image:Seattle - G.W. Stetson residence - 1900 - exterior.jpg and Image:Seattle - G.W. Stetson residence - 1900 - interior.jpg. The exterior photo has had a bit of manipulation to provide a background at upper right, since this corner is cut off in the original layout. The interior photo is of relatively low quality; that is the case in the brochure itself.
