Other versions Image:Seattle and the Orient p181.jpg is the full page. Image:Seattle Daily Times composing room 01 - 1900.jpg, Image:Seattle Daily Times linotype - 1900.jpg, and Image:Seattle Daily Times composing room 02 - 1900.jpg are the respective photos. The layout on the original page left these photos slightly overlapped, so that there are intrusions of the middle photo into the top and bottom photos. Those areas have been blurred out in those photos rather than attempt any more elaborate retouching.
