http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/69057854

Photographs and photomechanical prints of buildings designed by Portland, Or. architects Joseph Jacobberger (1869-1930) and his son, Francis Benedict Jacobberger (1898-1962). Joseph Jacobberger's work is represented by photographs of residential interiors and exteriors, as well as Catholic churches and other Catholic institutions, circa 1900-1925, and one building he designed for the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition in 1905. Francis Benedict Jacobberger's work is represented by views of the construction of the buildings he designed, including commercial and government buildings and churches, with some views of the completed structures, taken circa 1925-1956. Most of the photographs in the collection are of buildings that the Jacobbergers designed in the Portland, Or. area, as well as a few other towns in Oregon, and the majority of the photomechanical prints depict architectural drawings of their designs. Photographers include George Andrew Corley, Charles O. Stevens, Peasley-Jourdan, and Angelus Commercial Studio, all of Portland, Or., among many others. Other photographs were taken by Ross B. Hammond, contractor for the construction of some of Francis Benedict Jacobberger's designs, as well as by Francis himself.
