  • Subjects (LCSH): Exhibition buildings--Washington (State)--Seattle; Staircases--Washington (State)--Seattle

Despite the postcard title, this is looking east. The bandstand at Nome Circle and the Forestry Building are straight ahead; Nome Circle constituted the east end of Yukon Avenue. (This postcard is a drawing, probably pre-dating the exposition, but a layout difference that basic must be an outright error, not just artistic license.)
