Hardcover. Condizione: VG+. Suite of Fine 19th-century Photographs of California, New Mexico and Colorado Collected by a Traveler to Remember Their Visit in 1889  An evocative collection of 35 beautiful photographs of California and the W. 35 original albumen photographs, uniformly mounted on 12 x 10 inch card stock. Very minor fading to a few of the images. Occasional light discoloration to mounts. The photographs exhibit beautiful tonality. Overall condition is near fine. Suite of Fine 19th-century Photographs of California, New Mexico and Colorado Collected by a Traveler to Remember Their Visit in 1889 An evocative collection of 35 beautiful photographs of California and the West by noted western photographers, Isaiah Taber, Norman Reed, and William Henry Jackson. In remarkably nice condition, both the photographs and the uniform-sized card mounts. The pencil dates on the verso of the mounts record the time the unnamed owner of these prints visited the place depicted. The traveler visited Santa Barbara in early March 1889, then San Francisco from March 23 to April 2. By mid April they were in Colorado and New Mexico. Taber was particularly savvy about marketing his photographs to well-heeled tourists visiting San Francisco. Purportedly he installed direct phone lines in the best San Francisco hotels in order to have instantaneous communication with potential customers, who could then be invited into his gallery and seduced into purchasing mementos from his massive stock of western photographic views. The five photographs by Norman Reed relate to Santa Barbara, California. Two of these photographs show a pensive friar in the classic setting of the Mission Garden. This location, dating back to 1786, is now a National Historic Landmark commemorating the history of Spanish colonization in California. The last of the Reed group shows a neatly-dressed girl under a grape arbor. The uncredited images include several that are almost certainly by William Henry Jackson. These include landscapes of the Grand Canyon, Colorado Springs, views in New Mexico, the Rio Grande, the Canyon Diablo, Stockton, California, and more.
