Notes

William James (1870–1944) was an early Saskatchewan photographer whose work documented the life and development of Prince Albert and the surrounding region from the 1890s into the twentieth century.  Over the following decades he operated studios in Prince Albert and other prairie towns. His photographs include documentary views of places and events, studio portraits, panoramas and a small number of stereoscopic images.
