The collection also includes a photo portrait of Judd Boyton, posing next to the equestrian monument of Simon Bolivar, and a printed leaflet titled "Jungle Trek" and advertising Boynton's documentary about his travels "through the 'Green Hell' of a trackless jungle, and across the remote fastness of the mighty Andes to the Headwaters of the Amazon" (illustrated with a reproduction of his portrait in front of Simon Bolivar's monument). Overall an interesting collection of original snapshot photographs of Bolivia and Peru, taken by a noted Californian mountaineer and adventurer in the 1930s. A son of a noted Berkeley attorney Charles C. Boynton and his wife Florence (a friend and student of famous American choreographer and pioneer of modern contemporary dance, Isadora Duncan), Judd "was born at the temple-like family home known as "The Temple of the Wings," but nicknamed "The Doughnut House" by local residents [2800 Buena Vista Way, a Berkely Landmark since 1992]. The family, which included seven children, dressed in togas and lived a life of simplicity, eating nuts, berries and fruit. After graduating from the University of California, Boynton explored the Andes and the Amazon River and later prospected for gold in the Mother Lode country. He wrote on architecture, astronomy and also authored a book of memoirs" (Obituaries. Judd Emery Boynton// The Berkeley Gazette. 19 August 1983, p. 5).

In Yosemite// Merced (California) Sun-Star, 11 August 1933, p. 8), &c.
