Another group documents the May 1908 visit of the Great White Fleet to Seattle, and depicts the battleships, visitors to the ships, and scenes along 2nd Avenue showing crowds and decorated buildings on Naval Parade Day. Images of Seattle depict regrade operations, the Seattle waterfront, the downtown district, West Seattle, and other Seattle locations.
