[Salt Lake City], 1935. [94]pp. Oblong quarto [26 cm x 33.5 cm] Side-sewn brown pebbled buckram. 426 silver gelatin snapshots (most 3.5" x 2.5") in corner mounts on black leaves. Views well identified in ink in margins. The album is interspersed throughout with 47 contemporary post cards, 11 are RPPCs. A handful of larger photographs appear throughout. An excellent vernacular photography album that nicely documents recreating in Utah by a group of hunters, fishers, hikers, and adventurers. Views of the Wasatch foothills, (Grandeur, Parley's, Willow Creek, Big Cottonwood, Little Cottonwood, Lamb's), Provo Canyon and River, Bryce Canyon, Zion Canyon, Salt Flats, Dry Lake, Lake Tahoe, Redwoods, Cedar Valley, Skull Valley, Promontory, Ogden Canyon, Iosepa, Ensign Peak, Strawberry River, Wolf Creek, Fish Lake, and other locales. Some nice views of the Salt Lake Temple and Sugarhouse street scenes. Nicely identified and dated. This is the finest such album that we've handled. This album appears to have been compiled by Charles C. Eidler of Salt Lake City.
