New exhibit rich in Kansas history
Rare photos show Indian culture
by Steven Wolcott Kansan staff writer
The stoic visage of Osage Indian Ma-Chet-She stares out from the display case on the south wall of the Spencer Research Library at the Spencer Research Library.
This picture is just one of the many "buried treasures" that Nicoletta Bromberg, photo archivist for the Kansas Collection, has dug out of the collection's holdings of 800,000 prints and negatives.
Bromberg said, "This exhibit has a lot of good stuff that I know about, but nobody else gets to see."
Sheryl Williams, curator of the Kansas Collection, said that Bromberg had picked out interesting stories and had not been exhibited very often.
The photo holdings of the Kansas Collection cover the 1830s to the present. All 800,000 photos are of Kansas and the Midwest region.
The photograph of Ma-Chel Seh is from the Daniel Dyer Collection, one of two collections in the exhibit that feature pictures of American Indians and their culture. Dyer was an Indian agent in Oklahoma in the 1880s.
The other collection featuring American Indians is the 600-photograph Flord Shultz Collection.
Bromberg said that all of the photographs in the exhibit, with the exception of two prints, were the work of his father by the photographers themselves.
"I have my own darkroom and archival prints for our own uses." Bromberg said. "I sometimes do prints for exhibition purposes. I did a print of an oil fire picture from the Collection for Explorer magazine."
The Scott Collection is one of Kansas Collection holdings.
The majority of the photographs in the exhibit come from the Jules A. Bourquin collection of about 20,000 glass plate negatives.
*Bourquin was a very inventive photographer and he made the wonderful collection that has a
large variety of images, and that is not very well known."
Bourquin was an immigrant from Switzerland who settled with his family in Horton in 1888, two years after the town was founded. Bourquin photographed small-town life in Horton from 1898 to 1959.
His favorite subject was his son, Jules Starbuck Bourquin, who was called Junior by the family. Bourquin first photographed Junior when he was 20 hours old, and photographed him through various stages of his life until after Junior had married and had children of his own.
The exhibit also contains two of the oldest photographs in the Kansas Collection. A daguerreotype of Charles Robinson, the first governor of Kansas, dating from the 1850s, and an ambrotype of his wife, Sara Tappen Dollittle Robinson, from the same period.
Bromberg said that a daguerreotype was an early photographic process dating from the 1830s.
"The process was very dangerous because mercury fumes were used to produce the negatives." Bromberg said. "That is why many dager-uger boys are young. They were shut up in enclosed spaces with mercury fumes."
Other collections featured in the exhibit are photographs donated by the Kansas City Terminal Railway Company, of the building of Union Station in Kansas City, Mo; the Culver Collection, a turn-of-the-century hardware store owner in Topeka who made 5000 glass plate negatives, mostly of his family; and several photos from the Reuben Arsenal Company Collection, of organs being assembled in their Lawrence fac-
Bromberg said that an ambrotype was a cheaper imitation of the daguerreotype, invented in 1851.
The Reuter factory still manufactures organs in its plant at 612 New Hampshire St.
Hampshire St. Williams said that the exhibit would run through Jan. 30.
