Beschreibung
Oblong small quarto. Measuring 9.5" x 5". Three quarter brown leather and black clothes boards with gilt decoration. Contains 97 black and white or sepia-toned albumen Kodak prints measuring between 3" x 3" and 4" x 5", some with captions. Good only album lacking the leather on the spine with chips and rubbing with very good photographs with some fading. A photo album kept by J.W. Bailey of Middletown, Connecticut between September 1892 and July 1893. The first page includes a handwritten title with his name and the date as well as "Kodak Album #1." The album begins with interior shots of a family home and portraits of friends and family. One of these photos shows Bailey adjusting his camera in a bedroom mirror. Bailey also shot outdoor landscape shots of the town with snow covered streets, horse drawn carts, and storefronts. Later a parade through town is shown with people riding horses through the crowds and animals from the circus being displayed. Bailey also photographed a baseball game with action shots of men running and bases and stepping up to bat. Throughout the album it is clear that Bailey had a serious interest in photography and attempted to hone his craft using the relatively new Kodak camera. A nice collection of late 1800s amateur Kodak photography. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 424015
