Beschreibung
Oblong small octavo measuring 7" x 5". String-tied brown leather over paper boards with "photographs" stamped on the front board. Contains 128 sepia-toned or black and white gelatin silver photographs measuring between 1.5" x 2.5" and 2.75" x 3.5" with captions. Very good album with rubbing and edgewear with near fine photographs. A photo album kept by a California family between 1908 and 1942. The photos follow the family through vacations and parties with an emphasis on a young child. They visited Seal Rocks in San Francisco, San Anselmo, California, and Stanford University. A small boy is photographed from infancy through early childhood at these various locations. He is photographed on a beach, on a ship, and playing around the family home. One section is labeled "Broadmoor Blvd, San Leandro, Calif. Sept. 16th 1923- Oct. 6th 1923" and shows a small home and photos of the baby in a bassinet and the little boy from earlier in the album. The baby appears to be Mary Gardner, who is seen growing up through the end of the album and is labeled in a photo from 1942 and mentioned in a newspaper clipping affixed to a page.The clipping includes a story written by Mary when she was 11 about a bear she saw on a trip to Yosemite. A modest but nice collection of photos following a California family. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 415981
