Collection Size: 2.5 linear feet(2 boxes) Repository: Center for Sacramento History Sacramento, California 95811-0229 Abstract: The David L.

Most of the photographs were taken by David Joslyn during the 1920's while he was an employee of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Therefore, many of the photos deal with the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad Lines. Some of the photographs are copied from earlier photos, drawings and lithographs. Joslyn also took numerous photographs of the State Capitol and the surrounding park as well as many shots from rooftops around the area of downtown Sacramento. These photographs are invaluable when searching for specific locations or businesses in early 20th century Sacramento.

Biography / Administrative History

Guide to the David L. Joslyn MS0056 2 papers David L. Joslyn (1886-1963) was born in Salinas, Kansas on April 8, 1886. His father, an itinerant sawmill worker, moved the family frequently to find work. The Joslyn children consisted of three sons and one daughter. Prior to moving to Sacramento, the family lived in Portland, Oregon until July of 1896. In 1900, David Joslyn's father died. He and his mother began working in a cannery. He also worked as a delivery boy and bottle washer in a soda works. In 1902 he was employed by the Southern Pacific Railroad in the Tank Shop. With his first paycheck form the Southern Pacific, Joslyn purchased a camera and so began a life long interest in photography dealing with Sacramento. In 1908, David Joslyn married Retha Waldau and later had two sons; David W. and Erwin D. Joslyn. His first wife died in 1915 and he remarried Frances Wiley in 1916. During his employment with the Southern Pacific, he performed many jobs, finally becoming a draftsman in 1910. He also enrolled in a course in locomotive drafting with the International Correspondence School. Joslyn became the official photographer for the Sacramento shops in 1921 and also collected many early railroad photographs. He used a large format camera and was the unofficial photographer for the Southern Pacific by volunteering his services. Joslyn also joined the Railway and Locomotive Historical Society in 1922. He wrote many articles for the society's bulletin. He also belonged to the Union Lodge No. 58 of the Masons where he was editor of the "Messenger". Joslyn was also noted for his shots from the California Fruit Building at the corner of 4th and J Streets. Grant Black, a draftsman and friend, held Joslyn's feet while he dangled over the edges to obtain the best panorama view of the Sacramento skyline. He became a freelance photographer in his spare time, mainly doing work for McCurry's and Burkett's. Joslyn retired in 1948 after forty six years of employment with the Southern Pacific. He had contracted a heart condition due to years of exposure to copper and tin fumes in the brass foundry. During his retirement, he did extensive research in the State Library and dealt with the early newspapers. He died in 1963. Scope and Content of Collection The David L. Joslyn papers consist of photographs and manuscripts mostly documenting Joslyn's work as a photographer and his early memories of living in Sacramento, California. Most of the photographs were taken by David Joslyn during the 1920's while he was an employee of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Therefore, many of the photos deal with the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad Lines. Some of the photographs are copied from earlier photos, drawings and lithographs.
