Description: A Nootka woman with baskets for sale. A typewritten note on the back says: Jessie Wilson...has been making and selling baskets to tourists for more years than she can remember. She is a familiar figure with her baskets at Nootka, historically famous outpost on the West Coast of Vancouver Island where the Spanish and British late in the 18th century signed a pact giving the British formal possession of the Pacific Northwest by virtue of Capt. Cook's explorations.
