Porterville's J.C. Penney story on Main St., circa 1921.   The window displays have women's clothing on the left and men's clothing on the right side.    To the far left is the entrance to the "Hotel Glen Wood".

Close up:

A photo postcard ad with an image of the Visalia Milling Co.,  circa 1909.    This building stood at the SE corner of Santa Fe and Main Streets.   This is where the Ralston Purina mill was eventually located (which burned down in 1967).

Photograph by "Dean & Gay,  Porterville, Cal.".    Circa 1886.      Dean & Gay are known more for their studio in Selma, CA. (The style of font used on the Porterville studio stamp looks the same as the one used in Selma.).     The photographers are most likely:  James Knox Dean and Henry P. Gay (sometimes spelled Henry P. Gray).
 

Photo of the Santa Fe Depot in Tulare, CA.   Circa 1908.   This photograph was part of the archive of Edward Mitchell postcard company,  and was apparently used to create lithographs for  postcards (see the postcard just below).   On this photo,  there has been some hand drawn outlining and tinting done on the roof of the station,  apparently to prepare the image for the lithograph process.

Here's the finished product from the photo above.   This postcard is post-marked from Tulare,  7/29/1909.     It looks like they artistically added clouds to this image.

Photograph by A. R. Moore, of  Porterville. Circa 1903.       There is no location written on the photo,  but...   It seems that,  all of the logging photographs I've seen by Moore  have either been taken at the Converse Basin/Grant Grove area or at the Dillionwood/Balch Park area.  
The machine at the left side of this image is a 'steam donkey' engine, which was used to drag the cut logs to the sawmill. This log is on a wooden 'skid path' which made it easier to drag it to the mill.
Typically most of these logging operations had their sawmills not far from where the logging was done... It was easier for them to transport cut lumber to the Valley floor, rather than trying to send down whole logs.
