1946WRCAM54380N.p. 1946. 20pp. containing eighty black-and-white photographs each 7 1/4 x 9 inches. Oblong large folio. Contemporary blue cloth gilt. Minor edge wear corners worn. Photographs in excellent condition. Overall very good. A substantial and perhaps unique collection of large format photographs chronicling a 1946 hunting trip in British Columbia. The photographs are not captioned and no informational text is present. There are numerous striking landscape photos as well as many featuring a small group of men and women and their guides in camp on horseback and showing off their trophies which include rams bears fowl goats and a number of other animals. The guides or helpers who can be seen in several photographs appear to be Native American or of Native American descent. <br> <br> Usually albums of this nature are comprised of vernacular photographs taken by a member of the traveling party; however the composition of the photographs here and their unusually large size and clarity seem to indicate an experienced amateur or professional photographer. Also such an album would likely have been a unique production or one of a very small number of copies made for the members of the hunting trip. In any case it is a beautiful production capturing the majesty of the Canadian wilderness in the mid-20th century. hardcover books
