Many thanks to Priscilla Lang for our recent acquisition of several photographs by Bertrand “Dot” Dotson on a Road Trip through the Pacific Northwest along Highway 101. The catalog numbers indicate that all photos were taken on a single journey by the photographer in the 1940s along Highway 101. Dotson is the founder of ā€œDot Dotson’sā€, the oldest film and camera store in Eugene, Oregon. We thank Dot Dotson’s Studio for granting permission to re-publish these photographs of our area here:
