Negatives from the early 1900's

I also purchased a box of negatives, the images range from China in the early 1900's to many from Southern California, up to about the late 1930's.
There are images of the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge, the Great Wall of China and Peking in 1917, and lake Tahoe in 1923....building the bridge at Lees Ferry over the Grand Canyon, and much more to go through..
The photographer was an aviation buff, and took many images of female aviators such as Clara Livingston, Aletta Hegeman, and of course, Amelia Earhart...there are images of Earhart landing in Dorado, which was the last time she was seen!

Currently working on scanning and converting the images...but it is quite the history...

Clara Livingston had the airstrip on Dorado Beach that Earhart landed before taking off and was never seen again...

(this is not Earharts plane, but Aletta Hegemans)
