Corvallis railroad station on 6th between C and B Streets. It was later moved to 7th and Washington as the Southern Pacific freight station. Taken by Walter R. Baker, '08 CE.
Two cadets in old style grey uniform under a tree with three young women. This style of grey uniform was in use until 1892. Large chevron rank stripes on shoulders. Pencil notation on reverse: "1-15-62 Clyde Phillips states grey uniform worn until 1892 only before 1900." Print is probably not of the 1885 vintage and was done at a later date.
Cadet officers posing with sabres. Tunics have the large chevrons on sleeves denoting cadets rank. Previous description states "Booklet OAC Cadets 1908-09." This dating is probably incorrect. This photo is posed at the base of Benton Hall (then Administration Building) steps. The facade is still in original brick. Renovations in 1899 covered the brick with stucco. Photo is probably dated circa 1895. Uniforms are vintage with brimmed caps with OAC badge. Officer's uniform shows rank on shoulder boards.
Formation of OAC Cadets with rifles on lower campus with Benton Hall in background, circa 1895. Paleontology Building (built in 1892, now Women's center) to the right of Benton Hall. Men are wearing the standard blue tunics with brimmed caps. Rifles show the older type of bayonets, probably on rifles of pre-Spanish American War vintage.
