[Rarebooks] FS: Photo Album of 1927 Automobile Tour by Group of Young Women

[Charles Agvent]

PHOTO ALBUM OF AN AUTOMOBILE TOUR OF THE WEST IN 1927 BY A GROUP OF 
WOMEN. Decorated suede covers (9-1/4" x 6-1/2") with a rawhide tie 
containing 94 4-1/4" x 3-1/2" original photographs captioned in white 
ink on the album pages and 6 4" x 6" commercial photographs with 
captions in the negatives, all documenting an automobile trip out west, 
starting in or near Indiana. Photographs include stops in Kansas, New 
Mexico (Native Americans at Santa Domingo and a Zuni Reservation near 
Gallup), Colorado (Pike's Peak), Arizona (Grand Canyon), California 
(Yosemite and San Francisco), Oregon, Washington, Idaho (Gold Hunter 
Mine), Montana (Missoula Auto Camp), many photos of Yellowstone, 
Wyoming, and South Dakota. A few of the photographs at the end of the 
album, dated the same summer, are of Chicago and Niagara Falls. A number 
of the photographs are now loose from the album. The 
photographers/travelers are a group of 4 or 5 young women in what must 
have been something of a daring adventure at the time. Two photos show 
them repairing flats, and several show them with people they meet along 
the way. Fading to some of the photographs but most are not too bad. 
Very Good. (#020860)        $750
