This collection contains photographs taken by and of Charles G. Holdridge, which were taken between 1889-1914. The photographs portray the turn of the century living conditions in Fresno and the surrounding area. Over his life, Holdridge managed a lumber mill near Shaver Lake before opening Buckeye General Store in Fresno. Buckeye General Store eventually burned down, which is documented in this collection. Holdridge appears in many of the photographs, while other people are pictured but are unidentifiable. There are additional photographs taken in Rockford, Illinois, where Holdridge was born, and Los Angeles, where he moved to after his time in Fresno. This collection contains two boxes. Box one contains two photograph albums. Box two contains loose photographs taken out of the box.
