4to. 6.5 x 8.5 in. [16 pp (unpaginated)]. With colour-photo illustrations throughout, most w/ photographer's credit w/in negative, and printed captions identifying photographers. Colour-illustrated softcovers, cover art of gate leading into Mount Rainier w/ two Brass Era automobiles, colour illustration on back cover of automobiles on road to Mount Rainier (some wear, minor scuffing, light creasing), still VG- copy. First edition of this exceedingly scarce brochure touting automobile tours and ascent of Mount Rainier, also issued by Nowell under the title of "Souvenir of Mount Tacoma." Images include Mirror Lake, automobile on Government road, touring cars filed with passengers driving through the rustic log entrance, parked at the National Park Inn, as well as climing the glaciers on Mt. Rainier, and even "Snowballing" snow ball fights. Asahel Curtis (1874-1941) was one of three founders of The Mountaineers, organized climbs through the Cascades, and by 1917 had become chief guide at Mount Rainier National Park. His studio output was prodigious, and many of his images of Mount Rainier include the Curtis & Miller studio credit of when he partnered with Miller. Frank H. Nowell (1864-1950) began gold mining with his father Thomas Nowell on Douglas Island around 1886, and in 1900 went to Nome, where he turned his photography hobby into a profession, later becoming the official photographer for the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition.

Ephemera. Condizione: Near fine. Portrait of an Inuit woman, Kow-ear-nuk, standing at a slight angle to the camera, with a rack of split, drying salmon behind her. A similar image, captioned "Kow-ear-nuk and his (sic) drying salmon", appeared in many editions of Ella Higginson's Alaska: The Great Country, first published in 1908, and has been widely reproduced to document Inuit salmon-drying at the turn of the 20th century. The present image or the one in Higginson's book was exhibited in Indian Images at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History (1970) with the caption, "Kow-ear-nuk with tattooing on her chin. In the background fish have been split for drying." Nowell (1864?1960) worked in Nome, Alaska, from 1901 to 1909. In 1909, he moved his studio to Seattle. This image is not included in the online catalog of Nowell's work at the University of Washington. Image: 7-1/2 by 9 inches, printed with a narrow border. Captioned and numbered "Kow-Ear-Nuk" and "4076", with the photographer's mark reading "Copyright by F. H. Nowell 1905" in the negative. Unmounted but protected in an archival mat and held in place with clear photo corners. This is a platinum print on sepia paper. The image is excellent, with strong contrast and great tonal range. A terrific image.

Ephemera. Condizione: Near fine. A platinum print of a striking Inuit woman dressed in furs and staring down the camera. This image, with no title in the negative, is most often encountered as a photogravure entitled "Eskimo Belle." Nowell (1864?1960) worked in Nome, Alaska, from 1901 to 1909. In 1909, he moved his studio to Seattle. This image is included in the online catalog of Nowell's work at the University of Washington in gravure format, where the image is cropped slightly at the bottom and the sides. Image: 7-1/2 by 9 inches, printed with a narrow border. With the photographer's logo reading "Photo by F. H. Nowell" in script and the image number "1200" in the negative. Unmounted but protected in an archival mat and held in place with clear photo corners. This is a platinum print on sepia paper. The image is excellent, with strong contrast and great tonal range. A luminous image.

Ephemera. Condizione: Near fine. Portrait of Wy-ung-ena, an Inuit (possibly Alutiiq) woman, smoking a pipe and surrounded by metal pots, probably taken in Port Douglas, Alaska. Wy-ung-ena was a frequent subject for Nowell. One of his most widely reproduced images is a picture of Wy-ung-ena and her husband A-pa-look, and their child (neg. 4089). That image was taken at Cape Douglas, Alaska, and this image is likely from the same region. Nowell registered copyright on three other photographs of Wy-ung-ena, with negative numbers 4106, 4146 (this image), and 4147, and one of her and A-pa-look (neg. 4088). Nowell also copyrighted an image (not located) entitled "We are posing for two bits [25 cents]" suggesting how much he might have paid Wy-ung-ena to take her picture. Nowell (1864?1960) worked in Nome, Alaska, from 1901 to 1909. In 1909, he moved his studio to Seattle. This image is not included in the online catalog of Nowell's work at the University of Washington. Image: 7-1/2 by 9 inches, printed with a narrow border. Captioned "Wy-Ung-Ena" with a photographer's mark reading "Copyright 1905 by F. H. Nowell Nome" and "4146" in the negative. Unmounted but protected in an archival mat and held in place with clear photo corners. This is a platinum print on sepia paper. The image is excellent, with strong contrast and great tonal range. The upper left corner has darkened somewhat and their are a few small insect spots in the upper left quadrant.
