Summary

Photograph of drawing taken from the Town Crier, vol. 8(43), Oct. 26, 1912.
Affixed to verso: The above is an architect's drawing of the way the King County Courthouse was supposed to eventually look when it was conceived back in 1912. The superstructure of "penthouse" surmounted by a tower and pyramid have never been built, and there are no indications they will ever be built, though the Courthouse currently is undergoing a remodeling job running into the millions.
