PINAO BRICKWOOD MEMORIAL COLLECTION INTRODUCTION The Pinao Brickwood Memorial Collection of Hawaiian prints, maps and etchings was donated to the Territory of Hawaii by Victor S. K. Houston in October, 1938. The Archives was designated as the repository. The collection was originally framed and on public display. Subsequently the material was removed from display, the frames were discarded and the collection was stored under conditions intended to enhance long term preservation. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Pinao G. Brickwood Born in Honolulu ca. 1876 Married Victor S. K. Houston July 19, 1909 Died in Honolulu September 27, 1936 Source: Honolulu Advertiser, 9/28/1936, pl SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The collection was assembled by Victor S. K. Houston over the span of many years. It originally consisted of approximately 122 framed prints of Hawaiiana and ten framed maps of Honolulu Harbor. In 1940, additional prints were received from Mr. Houston and added to the Collection. Whether or not it was Mr. Houston's intent that this subsequent gift be added to the collection cannot be determined from available records. The maps were transferred to the Map Collection. See also: Photo Collection, voyage prints Victor S.K. Houston Collection (M-68) SERIES DESCRIPTION 1. Prints and Photographs. 1778-1841, 1867, 1928. 4 linear inches in 2 drop front print boxes.
