Note:

Title devised by cataloger.
Photographers include I.W. Taber, [George] Fiske, and [C.W.J.] Johnson. Most unattributed. Some Taber images have been trimmed and lack their caption and imprint line at lower edge.
Album likely compiled about 1891-1895, based on presence of image of the Junipero Serra monument in Monterey, installed 1891.
Album pages disbound, and images were likely not in original order at the time they were numbered by the library. Physical evidence such as page soiling suggest Hotel del Monte images appeared early in the volume and at the end.
