Special Suite of 28 Photos from New Hampshire circa 1920
Special Suite of 28 Photos from New Hampshire circa 1920
Photos printed on white cream photo paper creating a 0.5-inch plate mark around photo and 1.25-inch border. Mounted on black album paper measuring 9.75 x 12.75 inches. Photo paper measures 7.5 x 9.5 inches and photos measure 5.5 x 7.5 inches. Each page has tissue guard glued to black leaf. In most cases the tissue is wrinkled and/or torn and in several instances was adhered to the photo in minute spots. One photo is smaller. Unbound. Very Good Condition.
This collection arrived with a group of perhaps 800 vernacular photo albums--mostly early 20th century snapshots of family trips. These are of a quality totally on their own. Professionally printed and I surmise professionally shot by a Northeastern photographer. Photos are mostly views of New Hampshire. The photographer, A.E.H. signed maybe a half dozen of the 28 images. All but one is identified and cataloged in pencil. As of now, the photographer remains unknown. The scans do not show the richness of the photo quality. I'm pretty bullish on this set after looking through hundreds of snapshot albums.
Locales include Mt. Washington and the Mt. Washington Hotel, Mt. Lafayette, Brae Hill, Crawford Clubhouse, Mt. Star King, Presidential Range, Echo Lake, Amonousick [sic] River, the Stickney Memorial, Profile Lake, Mt. Prospect, Waumbeck and a couple of the Franconia Notch area.
This is a really nice set of New Hampshire photos beautifully executed. Item #1008
