1930's - 1940's Photos of Yellowstone National Park. There (16) 3¼" X 5¼" black and white photos mounted to two pages (both sides) of an old scrap book with pictures on both sides, which didn't fare well thru time. The pictures are marked as to what they are pictures of.  The pictures show as follows: Yosemite Falls; Upper Falls; Lower Falls; Half Dome; 3 Sisters; El Portal entrance with 1930's car; Inspiration Point; El Capitan; Mirror Lake; and the Merced River. I have 2 pages from the destroyed scrap book that came from the estate of a traveling salesman. He loved to travel and take pictures.   The photos them selves are in good condition with no rips, the same can't be said for the backing paper. The paper that they are mounted on has seen much better days. There are a few minor spots and bends on the pictures them selves, two of the photos have slight separations at the edges (approx 1/16"). 
 

1930's - 1940's Photos of New York, Chicago and San Francisco. There (15) varying size photos approx 3¼" X 5¼" and one 4 3/8" X 5½" black and white photos mounted to two pages of an old scrap book with pictures.  The some of the pictures are marked as to what they are pictures of.  The pictures show as follows: Chicago and New York marked as 1935; Central Park from the Plaza Hotel; Central Park and Rockefeller Ctr form the RCA building; The Plaza Hotel; Opening of the Golden Gate bridge; and the cruise Ship City of Honolulu after the fire from this destroyed scrap book that came from the estate of a traveling salesman.  Now to the gory details: Unfortunately the one pic of the Golden Gate under construction where you can see missing spans, took the worst edge damage on the right side. The picture of the Golden Gate where the spans are in, but it is still missing the deck, took a bend to the top right corner. The photos them selves are in good condition the same can't be said for the backing paper.  The paper that they are mounted on has seen much better days. There are a few minor spots, bends and waviness, to the pictures them selves (Burnt Ship Photo). Except for the unfinished bridge photo, the rest are in good condition
 

Hollywood Park Harness Racing Winner on 9/12/1980 Heroic Hanover. The picture is laminated to a 11" X 13" wooden plaque. The shiny surface has some minor surface scratches. There are minor bumps, bruises and dings. The edges are painted gold and there is quite a bit of flaking to the gold paint which could be fixed easily with a brush and a little work. 

Vintage 8" X 10" B&W Photo Hoover Dam taken from the water. There are no rips or tears, just some minor waviness from handling. The photo must have been taken sometime in the 1930's or 1940's, if you look closely with an eyepiece there is a truck of the same vintage parked by the power plant. The Hoover Dam not only produced hydroelectric power, but also controlled flooding down stream in the Imperial Valley in California. The first concrete was poured in 1933, with water being captured in the newly formed Lake Mead in early 1935. Wow, it takes most Highway Departments that long to "improve" just a mile or two of State Highway! 

1949 California Oil Company (Calso) Annual Meeting 11" X 14" Photo. This photo was taken at the Annual Sales Conference, Hotel Roosevelt, New York City. Nine years later Standard Oil would name it's Calso subsidiary Chevron. The photo has some bends and wrinkling from being jostled around over the years, NO rips or tears see the photo of the back side. This photo would look great framed. 

1916 GMO. Collignon Y Cia. Guadalajara Locomotive Photo. It is 9 3/4" X 7 9/16" without the backing, the backing measures 12" X 14". It is dated on the back 1916 so the thing is around 89 years old. The backing is rather tore up around the edges, please enlarge all the photos to see all the damage to the backing. The picture itself has bumps, bruises, minor scratches a little wrinkling, missing a dog ear in the lower right corner and is coming unstuck from the backing. Rare early century foreign steam locomotive photo. If I were to keep it I would matte it into a frame with the backing attached so they never get separated.
