  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: PH036_5034 Lee Moorhouse photographs Year: 1900 A black-and-white photograph. The inscription in white ink at the bottom says 'Maj. Moorhouse and Wards' Umatilla Reservation. The number 5054 is written in the bottom left corner of the photo. Major Lee Moorhouse and two Native American children are seen in front of a tule-mat-and-canvas tipi. A wooden ladder leans against the right side of the tipi, along with some wooden poles. A striped blanket has been placed on the ground in front of the tipi, partly propped up by some unseen object, and two small children are on the blanket. The girl, who wears a scarf tied over her head, is sitting on the left side. She seems to be wearing a cloth shawl over a cloth dress. Standing to the right of her, next to Maj. Moorhouse, is a young boy, who appears to be wearing overalls topped with a dark cloth jacket missing all but the top button. His shoulder-length hair is cut in bangs. He wears European-style shoes or boots. Next to him squats the major in profile to the camera. His left hand is closest to the camera, and in it he holds the carcasse or hide of a small furry animal. The major wears a light-colored felt hat, a high-collar white shirt with a gingham patterned cravat, a vest, and striped wool trousers tucked into boots. He wears a buckskin jacket which is fringed at the seams and along the bottom and faced with fur. The front of the open jacket is also decorated with beadwork using floral motifs. Aside from a moustache, the major is clean-shaven. He is looking down towards the little boy. On the blanket in front of the children lies a semi-cylindrical basket with a geometric pattern woven in dark colors on a light background; the basket appears to have straps.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: PH036_2780 Lee Moorhouse photographs Year: 1900 "A black-and white photograph identified as Moorhouse residence, Pendleton. Seven adults stand on the front porch of the home, posed for a portrait with a baby who is perched on a pillow on the railing of the porch, next to one of its two columns. The baby is being supported by one of the men. There is some snow on the ground. The men wear hats and suits. Several of the women wear white blouses and long dark skirts; a couple others wear long dark dresses. The baby is all in white. The house is neo-Dutch Colonial in style. The clapboard walls of its lower story are painted white while the shingled second and third stories are a darker shade. Curtains can be seen behind the glass windows. In the foreground of the photograph is the wooden framework of a fence, filled in with chicken wire. Tall trees stand behind the fence, and they are nearly bare of leaves, giving a good view of two dormer windows on the second floor and a brick chimney at the right side of the roof. The porch and first floor are approached by a short wooden stair with white wooden railings. The house sits on a foundation of stones lined with white morter. In the background at the right of the photo can be seen a fence railing and behind it another light-colored wooden frame house with lacy details on the porch columns."

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Anti-lepus journal : travels with Howard, v16 Author: Ellis, Elsi Vassdal Covered in rabbit fur; This journal was inspired by the call for work for the Fourth Triennial Book Arts Exhibition. The theme: Rabbit and House. During Fall 2005 I had the privilege of teaching a junior honors course on the art of the book (Book as Object of Fear and Desire). Umberto Eco's The name of the rose served as the center of our exploration of manuscript traditions, religion, heresy and anything medieval. My students were charged with the task of turning a traditional term paper into a medieval manuscript sewn on cords, laced into wood boards, and finished off with or without leather. My first idea for the call was to create a heretical text, The Gospel of Rabbit. Once I got started writing it I realized what a task it would be. My next idea was to create a character - the Anti-Lepus (rabbit) hunter who would try to uncover the sinister plot of rabbits and hares throughout the world in their goal to eliminate all humans. Some of the information is based upon historical research. The images are combinations of copyright free images (Corel & internet), sketches based upon images, created facsimiles, family photos, and original art , all gently or not so gently massaged in Photoshop following scanning [The artist/author at the age of eight is holding the bunny on the beach.] The book was assembled and imposed on a Mac G4 in InDesign and printed in an edition of 10 on an Epson le86 ink jet printer with archival inks. The handwriting font is Texas Hero. Rabbit fur purchased in Portland, Oregon, has been used for the exterior binding.

Year: 1910 Hand tinted image. Four people identified as Gertrude Bass Warner, Murray Warner, Sam Warner, and Mrs. Epperley pose next to an outdoor sculpture. This structure may be a shrine. It is composed of multiple tiers and is supported by a decorative stone base with steps. Two women (Warner is on the left, Epperley on the right) are seated on these steps, dressed in long sleeved blouses and long skirts. Sam Warner leans on the stone base and is dressed in a long sleeved shirt, belt, trousers, and shoes. On the left of the image, Murray Warner holds a hat and is dressed in a long sleeved button-up shirt and trousers. In front of the group is a wooden trough. On top of this wooden structure sits a hat with a wide brim. The ground is covered with flat rectangular rocks pieced together like brickwork. A low wooden fence, trees, and two pieces of wood are visible on the far left side of the image. A tall wooden fence and the tied roof of a dwelling is visible in the background.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: C-13. Log Cradle where ocean going log rafts are built on Coumbia River A black-and-white photo with white text written at the bottom: "C-13. Log cradle where ocean going log rafts are built on Columbia River". The photograph shows a framework of upright posts held together with boards connecting the tops of the posts. A second set of boards runs along the posts just above the water. Each post also has a board bolted to each side about five feet above the water, and these boards slant down diagonally into the river. The "cradle" appears to be put together in long sections, with gaps between the sections. In the center of the picture the area in between the slanting sides of the "cradle" is filled with logs lying end to end in the water. Some of the logs still retain bark and moss, and others are smooth. Two people are standing on logs, one on each side of the "cradle". The man on the right wears a hat, suit, light shirt, and tie, and seems to have his hands in his pocket. The other person is all in dark colors and does not appear to be wearing a hat. Not far beyond him the water in the "cradle" is empty of logs. To the left of the image is a line of trees near the water. Title: C-13.
