Minnesotan Andrew Lindgren, who graduated from St. Cloud State in 1901 and in 1908, created a photograph album with images that he took ca. 1906-1909. The majority of the photographs were taken of the St. Cloud State campus, the immediate area around campus, and central Minnesota. The album also includes photographs from other cities in Minnesota, including the Twin Cities, Silver Creek, Watab, Stillwater, Buffalo, Monticello, Spicer, and Verndale. The album also has photos Lindgren took of Salt Lake City, Portland (Oregon), Annapolis (Maryland), Cripple Creek (Colorado), Seattle, Denver, New Orleans, New York City, Cape Cod, and Hawaii, as well as from British Columbia and Novia Scotia in Canada and Panama.
