View of Pacific American Fisheries Bellingham Plant
Caption in pencil on reverse: "View of Pacific American Fisheries Bellingham Plant, the largest in the world" In the center of the photo is the wooden building at the northeast corner of 4th and Harris that was built to be the Alsop Wholesale Meat Market; it replaced Dan Harris' Fairhaven Hotel and became the second office of PAF. It was destroyed by fire in 1934 and replaced by a brick building (where the train station is now). The railroad tracks and several other buildings (PAF and other, including the brick building with the PAF sign on it asking "Why Eat Canned Salmon?") are beyond the PAF office with the garden in the foreground with P.A.F. spelled out in flowers. South Hill is in the right background.
