Collection Overview
Title:
[Yellowstone National Park snapshot photograph album]Abstract:
Album of snapshot photographs chiefly depicting views of a trip to Yellowstone National Park by an unidentified group of at
least 3 women and 1 man. Views depict park scenery, tourist cabins and surrounding landscapes. A few scenes depict Native
Americans greeting visitors at a train station. Identified subjects include Old Faithful geyser and Old Faithful Lodge. Loose
photographs in folder -- too large to have been adhered in the album -- depict scenes from a trip, perhaps related to the
Yellowstone visit, of a few women posing at various locations in the Rocky Mountains region. One scene depicts 2 women posing
at a sign for the Continental Divide in Sweetwater County, Wyoming; another shows the Central City Opera House of Central
City, Colorado.
