Photo Album Documenting a Trip Through South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah, 1931
1931.
Soft cover. Very Good. 10" x 13" photograph album, 25 leaves with 198 mounted photographs, many captioned in a neat hand, and an additional 24 leaves unused. Alligator skin binding, string-tied. Moderate edgewear and what appears to be charring to the front; internals fine. Approximately 60 of the photos were taken in Yellowstone National Park. Other locales include Hot Springs, SD; Wind Cave National Park; the Black Hills; Devil's Tower; Grand Teton National Park; the Big Horn Mountains (WY); Salt Lake City and the Great Salt Lake; Rocky Mountain National Park; and Denver. Primarily depicting natural features and treacherous roads, but with some images of the travelers in camp, posing with the day's catch, on a sunny rock, or in front of road/elevation signs, and just a few cityscapes (Salt Lake, Denver). Many disconcertingly close up pictures of bears in Yellowstone.
