Description: Original description reads: "Freighter passing the stadium. Cleveland Municipal Stadium and freighter entering harbor." Cleveland Municipal Stadium was completed in 1931 and at that time it had the largest individual seating capacity of any outdoor arena in the world, at 78,189 seats. It was one of the early multi-purpose stadiums, built to accommodate both baseball and football, as well as many other events over the course of its history. By March 1, 1997, due mainly to the moving of the Cleveland Browns football team to Baltimore, Cleveland Municipal Stadium had been completely demolished and the debris had been removed to clear way for construction of a new stadium.

Description: This is a photograph of a little girl sitting on a porch flanked by two dogs. A weathered frame house is in the background. This photograph was taken by traveling photographer Albert J. Ewing, ca. 1896-1912. Like most of Ewing's work, it was likely taken in southeastern Ohio or central West Virginia. Born in 1870 in Washington County, Ohio, near Marietta, Ewing most likely began his photography career in the 1890s. The 1910 US Census and a 1912-1913 directory list him as a photographer. A negative signed “Ewing Brothers” and a picture with his younger brother, Frank, indicate that Frank may have joined the business. After 1916, directories list Albert as a salesman. He died in 1934. The Ewing Collection consists of 5,055 glass plate negatives, each individually housed and numbered. Additionally, the collection includes approximately 450 modern contact prints made from the glass plate negatives. Subjects include infants and young children, elderly people, families, school and religious groups, animals and rural scenes. In 1982, the Ohio Historical Society received the collection, still housed in the original dry plate negative boxes purchased by Albert J. Ewing. A selection of the original glass plate negatives were exhibited for the first time in 2013 at the Ohio Historical Center. View on Ohio Memory.
