Abstract: The Carl Christensen photograph collection, circa 1869-1973, bulk 1920-1951, (SAFR 14390, P85-035) is comprised mainly of
photographs of steam schooners, tugboats, freighters and passenger vessels in Northern California waters. The collection has
been processed to the Item level and is open for use.
Physical Location: San Francisco Maritime NHP, Historic Documents Department
Language(s):
In English.
Access
This collection is open for use unless otherwise noted.
Nitrate negatives are restricted from use. Use-copies can be provided.
Publication and Use Rights
Some material may be copyrighted or restricted. It is the researcher's obligation to determine and satisfy copyright or other
case restrictions when publishing or otherwise distributing materials found in the collections.
Processing Note
Item level description was done by ML in 1985. The original order does not appear to have been maintained. At some point the
negatives were given Item numbers, possibly in order of their densitometry reading when contact interpositives and copy negatives
were made from the nitrate negatives. When processed in 2013, the Archivist kept the assigned Item numbers, but intellectually
arranged the negatives into Series and File Units in an attempt to reunite photographs that had been taken on the same day,
were of the same vessel, and/or had similar content. Because the Items are intellectually arranged, one Item can sometimes
be found in several File Units within Series 1 (Vessels), when multiple vessels are shown in one photograph. The front matter
was also written in 2013.
Each photographic image has been assigned an Item number; there are often multiple physical forms of each image (e.g. a nitrate
negative, a contact interpositive, and a copy negative) which has been noted in the physical description field. All photographs
are housed by type for preservation purposes. Items are numbered 0001-0065A, 0065B-0484.
Many of the negatives in this collection correspond to prints in the Carl Christensen photograph albums in P78-478a (SAFR
19519). It has not been confirmed whether all of the negatives in this collection have a corresponding print in the albums
in P78-478a. It is very likely that the museum acquired the negatives and albums from Carl at the same time (see SFMM Accession
Ledger 448/18).
The 1985 accession form notes that "photographer is assumed to be Carl Christensen unless otherwise indicated" but this is
not accurate. Carl collected photographs from many sources and it cannot be assumed that he took most of these photographs.
It is likely that he took many photographs in this collection, but which photographs he took cannot be confirmed.
The accession form notes that the collection originally contained 299 nitrate negatives. SAFR staff made contact interpositives
and copy negatives from most of the nitrate negatives around 1985. A note in the collection file indicated that 4 nitrate
negatives were destroyed in the 1980s. In 2013, the Processing Archivist discovered that some nitrate negatives had erroneously
been identified as safety negatives; this error was rectified and the nitrate negatives were digitized for access and housed
in nitrate storage. As of January 2013, there were 300 nitrate negatives found for this collection.
As of January 2013, the following Item numbers are missing nitrate negatives, according to the initial accession sheet and
previous processing descriptions. It is possible that these nitrate negatives were disposed of in the 1980s and the collection
descriptions were not updated:
- 058 Santa Fe (tugboat) at dock in San Francisco, California, bow view, undated.
- 098 Oregon (schooner, 3m) underway in Prosper, Oregon, view off starboard bow, 1905.
- 107 Amazon (barkentine) underway, view off starboard bow, circa 1902-1925.
- 163 James S. Higgins (built 1903; steam schooner) at anchor, broadside view, 1903-1917.
- 201 Antelope (paddle ferry) underway in Humboldt Bay, California, stern view, circa 1948-1951.
- 202 Antelope (paddle ferry) underway in Humboldt Bay, California, view off port quarter, circa 1948-1951.
- 283 Mauna Kea (passenger vessel) underway in Honolulu, Hawaii, view off starboard quarter, circa 1908-1938.
- 473 Klamath (built 1909; steam schooner) under construction at the Hans D. Bendixsen Shipyard in Fairhaven, California, bow
view, 1909.
- 474 Klamath (built 1909; steam schooner) under construction at the Hans D. Bendixsen Shipyard in Fairhaven, California, view
off port bow, 1909.
- 477 Klamath (built 1909; steam schooner) under construction at the Hans D. Bendixsen Shipyard in Fairhaven, California, view
off port bow, 1909.
- 479 Klamath (built 1909; steam schooner) under construction at the Hans D. Bendixsen Shipyard in Fairhaven, California, bow
view, 1909.
The Processing Archivist was unable to find any physical Items for Item number 0355. This was listed on the initial accession
sheet, which is where the description comes from. This photograph has been noted as missing as of January 2013:
Item 355: Cape Horn (freighter) underway, view off port quarter. There was supposed to be 1 nitrate negative and 1 safety
film negative, but neither of these could be found in January 2013.
As of January 2013, the following Item is missing a physical form of the image, according to the initial accession sheet and
previous processing descriptions:
Item 435: Crescent City (built 1906; steam schooner), Nehalem (steam schooner), Daisy Gadsby (built 1911; steam schooner)
and Svea (built 1906; steam schooner) in Aberdeen, Washington, circa 1910-1917. (missing 1 print, 5 x 7 in.)
During processing in January 2013, it was discovered that several photographs had been previously misidentified:
- -P85-035.295B (MIACOMET) was misidentified, and was in fact actually P85-035.157. P85-035.157 had been missing, so the error
was fixed and 157 was refilled where it belonged. Consequently, there was only one photograph with the Item number 295, so
295A was renumbered as 295.
- -P85-035.344B (COLUMBUS) was misidentified, and was in fact actually P85-035.266. P85-035.266 had been missing, so the error
was fixed and 266 was refilled where it belonged. Consequently, there was only one photograph with the Item number 344, so
344A was renumbered as 344.
- -Items 302-306, and 412 were misidentified as safety negatives. They were in fact nitrate negatives, so they were digitized
and moved to nitrate storage. These Items do not have any contact interpositives or copy negatives.
Description Notes:
Dates refer to when the original photograph was taken. Some of the photographs in this collection are copies that were made
much later than when the original photograph was taken.
The descriptions in this collection guide were compiled using the best available sources of information. Such sources include
the creator's annotations or descriptions, collection accession files, primary and secondary source material and subject matter
experts. While every effort was made to provide accurate information, in the event that you find any errors in this guide

Acquisition Information
SAFR-00001
GOGA-00735
SAFR-00001, GOGA-00735:
Carl Christensen gave these photographs to the San Francisco Maritime Museum, but the exact date is unknown. It is very likely
that the museum acquired these negatives on September 4, 1975 (see SFMM Accession Ledger 448/18), because many of the negatives
in this collection (P85-035) match the prints in the albums that Christensen sold to the museum on September 4, 1975 (P78-478a),
and that sale also included negatives.
SAFR-00001 is a blanket accession that was transferred from the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) to the San Francisco
Maritime National Historical Park in September 1988. GGNRA had previously acquired the collection from the San Francisco Maritime
Museum when it became a unit of the National Park Service in 1977.
GOGA-00735 was transferred from the San Francisco Maritime Museum Association to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area
(GGNRA) in October 1984.
Historical or Biographical Note
Carl Christensen (1906-1986) lived in Eureka, California for many years, and was a photographer, photograph collector, and
a maritime historian specializing in steam schooners of the Pacific Coast.
Carl Mobius Christensen was born May 28, 1906. He was a native of Humboldt County, California and was born and raised on the
Samoa Peninsula near the U.S. Coast Guard Station. Christensen lived in Eureka, California for many years before moving to
Grove City and then to Arroyo Grande. He was a photographer, photograph collector, and a maritime historian specializing in
steam schooners of the Pacific Coast. He was a member of the Humboldt County Historical Society and the Humboldt Maritime
Museum. Christensen was a member of the Eureka Firefighters Local No. 652 and his father worked for years at the Humboldt
Bar life-saving station.
During the 1930s-1940s, Carl and his brother Art Christensen both piloted the launch MADAKET (ex NELLIE C.), ferrying passengers
and freight from Samoa to Eureka. MADAKET was built in Fairhaven in 1909, launched in 1910 and refurbished in 1989. She is
the oldest continuously operating passenger vessel in the United States, celebrated her 100th birthday on June 6, 2010, and
is the last survivor of seven original ferries that transported mill workers and families around Humboldt Bay. The completion
of the Eureka-Samoa bridge in 1971 put the ferry service out of business. Ironically, the second span of the California 255
Samoa Bridge is named in honor of Carl L. Christensen Jr., a democratic District Attorney and Justice in Humboldt County who
died in September 1976.
Carl often frequented Sam Swanlund's photography shop "Swanlund's Camera" in Eureka, California, where he would have prints
made and would sell photographs to Swanlund. In an interview in 2002, Swanlund recalled that Carl Christensen and Lloyd Stine
met Ray Jerome Baker (also known as R.J. Baker) who had a photo studio in Eureka from 1904-1910 before he moved to Hawaii
with his family. Over the years, Christensen and Stine bought Baker's photographs (about 1400 glass plate negatives) from
his time in Humboldt County. Carl and Lloyd would often come into Swanlund's shop to have contact sheets made from glass plate
negatives they had purchased from Baker, and in the late 1960s Sam Swanlund purchased several hundred of those negatives from
Christensen and Stine. In the 1970s, Peter Palmquist purchased other Baker photographs from Christensen. Swanlund donated
all of his Baker photographs to Humboldt State University. Palmquist donated some Baker photographs to Humboldt State University
and others to the
Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale University.
Carl Christensen was very knowledgeable about steam schooners and corresponded with both Karl Kortum and Harold Huycke, among
other maritime historians. In a letter that Harold Huycke wrote to Carl's brother Art in 2004, Huycke says that "upon reflecting
on the numerous people I have known who have been very important in the accumulation of the entire steam schooner history,
as far as I know, Carl is close to the top of the list of preservers and historians . . . I think it is very important that
some space be dedicated to the biographies of those people, like Carl, who did so much in the very earliest years of this
research."
Carl Christensen died on January 6, 1986, in Arroyo Grande, California at the age of 79. He was survived by his wife Frankie
B. Christensen, daughter and son-in law Beth and Isam Zamamiri, son David R. Christensen, brothers Arthur E. Christensen and
George Christensen, and sister Anna McGrew.

Collection Scope and Content
The Carl Christensen photograph collection, circa 1869-1973, bulk 1920-1951, (SAFR 14390, P85-035) is comprised mainly of
photographs of steam schooners, tugboats, freighters and passenger vessels in Northern California waters. The collection has
been processed to the Item level and is open for use.
Primarily contains photographs of vessels underway and at anchor, but also includes vessels wrecked and a few under construction.
There are 485 unique photographic images, in 1122 physical forms (300 nitrate negatives, 313 contact interpositives, 346 copy
negatives, 134 safety negatives, and 29 black-and-white photographic prints). Most vessels are pictured on the West Coast,
primarily in the Humboldt County area, the San Francisco Bay Area, and the Los Angeles/San Pedro area. There are also photographs
of people aboard vessels (including Carl Christensen), shipyards, harbors and U.S. Lifesaving Service staff, vessels, and
lighthouses.
The collection includes photographs of MADAKET (built 1909; launch) which Carl piloted, and many vessels in Humboldt Bay,
California, where Carl lived for most of his life. There are also many photographs of steam schooners, which Carl was interested
in and knowledgeable about.
Most of the original envelopes did not credit a photographer. Known photographers include:
Aston, R.J. Baker, Orison Beaton, Hugh Delanty, R. Demaro, Freeman, Freeman Art Company, Roy D. Graves, Jim Leo, J.A. Meiser,
Ralph Shanks, and J. Porter Shaw. Also, several photographs say: credit Carl Christensen/Joe Tibbetts Collection.
Collection Arrangement
The collection is physically arranged in Item number order (which reflects a numbering scheme imposed by previous SFMNHP staff).
The collection has been intellectually arranged into the following series: Series 1: Vessels; Series 2: Shipyards and Harbors;
Series 3: U.S. Lifesaving Service staff, vessels, and lighthouses; Series 4: People. Series 1 has been further arranged into
251 File Units, arranged alphabetically by vessel name.
