This excellent photo album is the souvenir of a Grand Western tour undertaken sometime in the 1890's. A complete description of the contents and brief biographical notices of the photographers can be found in our PDF file, downloadable here. Western adobe and mission architecture, cattle trains, ocean views, tourists, images of Mexican and Native American peoples, railroads, Chinatown in San Francisco, and desert rock formations abound; the images are all albumen prints in very good condition and are firmly mounted on stiff grey boards. A few are hand tinted. Some are captioned by the studio or photographer; the rest are unattributed. Most are between 3 x 4 inches and 6 x 9 inches. Some of the binding pages are loose. The album itself is in good condition. $2,750.00.
