Henry C. Bertelsen Papers 1906-1968

Henry Bertelsen studied at the Chicago Institute of Fine Art. After finishing his work there, Bertelsen came to Spokane in 1905. He went to work as a draftsman for the architectural firm of Cutter & Malmgren, continuing to work for Cutter after Karl Malmgren left in 1917. When Cutter departed for California in 1923, Bertelsen took over what remained of the business in payment for back wages. Bertelsen continued to practice until his death in 1963. The collection consists of office correspondence, 1940-1954; financial and tax records, 1938-1948; and building specifications, 1927-1939.The Eastern Washington State Historical Society also has 150 sets of architectural drawings by Bertelsen.
