On the other hand, can you afford to leave any stone unturned if you are  
desperate for information?

    This is very  much a crap shoot what you will get; as others have said 
all you  may get is a bare bones license copy, which may either be a  
somewhat decorative item, or just the recording entry of it in the  county books. 
On some records you get a real bonanza though. I  have had marriage records 
where one or both children were under  age that included depositions from 
one or both parents  of the groom and bride that the marriage was approved of 
and birth  dates of both and sometimes of the parents  too.

That said  my never having pulled an entry for Clatsop county I would have 
to  defer to Sue and Denise in their assessment it is  probably a bare 
license copy.

Does   anyone on the list know what is likely contained in this  record
and whether it is worth trying to obtain a  copy?

Thanks in  advance
