Creator NotesPrior to his arrival in Portland, Oregon, Philip Chappell Browne was an architect and surveyor in Auckland, New Zealand, according to an 1885 patent application for a ventilator for windows. (Item 1359. 14th January. Philip Chappell Browne, of City Chambers, Vulcan Lane, Auckland, Architect and Surveyor.—An invention for a ventilator for windows. Letters and Patents, 1885, National Library of New Zealand website). He later obtained a copyright by way of the Oregon Flag Co., Portland.
Metadata NotesDescription of this work is based initially on documentation supplied by the image provider. It is often the case with gift slides that very little information is provided. Review and updating of descriptive information by the collection cataloger is ongoing.
