1909List1921London 1909. Silver gelatin prints measuring 5 ½ x 4 ½ inches. Editorial marks to verso one marginal tear else about fine with fine contrast very good plus overall. Fine. Western shows particularly Buffalo Bill’s which ran in Earls Court for several years were highly influential in introducing the British public to American Indian culture often in highly fictionalized form. After the Buffalo Bill show ceased performing in London others followed including the The Golden West and American U.S.A. industries exhibition of 1909. Offered here are three photographs of American Indian children from the exhibition who were likely part of the show’s ‘Red Man Spectacle.†They are likely Oglala. The show featured a reenactment of an entirely fictitious event called the “Black Hawk Massacre in Colorado†and some veterans of Cody’s shows including Red Shirt Lone Bear and Painted Horse were among the performers. The three children pictured here are named Little Holy Flower Hold His Hand and Come in Camp. A note to a verso says the pictures were taken concurrently with the Franco-British Exposition which continued for several years in various iterations beginning in 1908. We find one variant image from this shoot otherwise no record of these images which may have been taken by the Brown Brothers firm or possibly ended up in their possession from another photographer. unknown

New Deal-era western construction and industrial expansion across California Oregon and Washington recorded in an extensive family photo album with inscribed dates locations and details.

This album's years align with the federal agencies and private contractors shift to reshape western rivers harbors roads and transportation infrastructure.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 469 photographs mostly silver gelatin photos and with some real photo postcards ranging from 2.5 x 4 to 5 x 7 inches California Oregon and Washington Arizonia 1932-1938. The album includes extensive handwritten captions identifying Monterey California breakwater work in 1932 Azusa road construction in San Gabriel Canyon in 1933 Bonneville Oregon in 1934 Monterey Bay dragline work in 1934 San Francisco and Oakland Bay views Hansen Dam shovel work and family travel between Encinal Washington and Oakland. Monterey pages record a shovel loading rock trucks lined for breakwater work a first load of rock dumping rock from a pier and Monterey Pier from the water. Azusa pages show a slide covering a shovel a truck being let down a steep hill by cable road cuts through canyon rock and named men beside heavy trucks. Bonneville pages show "Dolph & a new Mack truck" four new Mack trucks a new car beside a shovel men standing inside a shovel bucket and a "50 B drag line" on the Columbia River. Additional construction scenes show electric shovels steam shovels loading trucks workers in quarries tug crews draglines extending over water trestle rail lines partially framed industrial buildings in San Francisco in 1937 and captioned men including Key Dolph Bill Reid Pat Al Bow Irving Pinky Hamlistall and George Lamblet. Travel and family pages add a 1936 Oldsmobile camp trailers ferries Treasure Island and the Bay Bridge Oakland camps Warrendale and Bonneville family portraits sailors at a beer hall Columbia River Highway views and domestic scenes that place construction labor inside a wider pattern of westward automobile mobility. This album records the overlap between large-scale public works and ordinary itinerant life: heavy machinery quarry crews draglines trestles cofferdams dump trucks travel trailers and family stops all appear. Many photographs document domestic life from family gatherings to celebrations of new born babies. <br /> At its core this album depicts regional power planning flood control military and commercial harbors and the creation of automobile infrastructure which permanently altered the West Coast and Columbia River basin. Bonneville and Grand Coulee brought hydroelectric capacity irrigation planning and federal power policy into the center of Northwest development while the Bay Bridge and related Oakland-San Francisco work changed metropolitan circulation around the bay. The captions repeatedly tie people to machines and locations suggesting a family or work circle moving through construction jobs rather than a tourist album with incidental industrial views. Edge wear chipping album leaves worn spine and many loose pages; images remain clear captions remain legible and securely mounted or associated with their original pages. Overall in good condition. This archive documents the New Deal-era western construction through quarry faces truck yards draglines ferry crossings trailers named workmen and families following the work from site to site spanning the Bay Bridge to Hansen Dam. unknown

1929302295Los Angeles 1929. 100 pp of typed documents and an additional 50 album leaves mounted with approximately 50 photographs various sizes and processes and various documents. Folio. Limp leatherette with title and recipient name stamped in gilt to upper cover. Large black quarter morocco clamshell box gilt. 100 pp of typed documents and an additional 50 album leaves mounted with approximately 50 photographs various sizes and processes and various documents. Folio. "It is proposed that a COMPLETE ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS be opened to the public on a fifty cent admission basis which is to be properly laid out as an attractive Zoological and Botanical Garden with the finest and largest private collection of animals birds and reptiles to be seen anywhere on the continent."<br /> <br /> The advent of the motion picture industry in California had many wide-ranging ramifications on the business world and one was that it created a new market for firms who traditionally supplied animals to circuses and zoos both public and private owned by the likes of William Randolph Hearst. <br /> <br /> This archive is a report by the Investment Auditors of California for the Horne Corporation that was looking to expand by establishing a zoological garden in the environs of Los Angeles. The Horne Corporation was the largest and most successful of its type at the time apparently the only company in the US that could completely outfit a circus with both animals and show equipment. They were to purchase the Los Angeles Zoological Garden and Jungle Studio for $250000 and thereby sought to provide a similarly complete service to the film studios with both animals and suitable locations for film sets.<br /> <br /> The head of the company I.S. Horne for whom this report was compiled commenced trading in animals from Kansas City MO around 1914. The range of animals at the their disposal included big game birds reptiles and many of the documents concern the prospect of importing reindeer from Alaska.<br /> <br /> The material is held in a presentation album and includes the certificate of incorporation in Wilmington Delaware May 13 1929 as well as the by-laws of the corporation minutes of the first meeting the proposal for Los Angeles Zoological Garden and Jungle Studio and a balance sheet. At this stage the company had total assets of $57700 & liabilities of $625388.46; an enumeration of the various animals in inventory including wildebeest sables leopard lynx Rhodesian baboons bushbaby and a large aardvark.<br /> <br /> Of real interest are the plans for the park including artist's impressions which would be furnished with circus attractions "Monkey Island" jungle setting for motion pictures and an acknowledgment that "before the introduction of the motion picture industry the art of showmanship was not quite so highly developed as it is today." In fact one of the first pictures they supplied animals for was - appropriately enough - Trader Horn which was nominated for the 1931 Academy Award for Best Picture. <br /> <br /> On a more practical level there is a "Descriptive Classification of Principal Commercial Wild Animals" which lists 340 different animals in some details. There is also an account of hunting wild animals in East Africa as well as a section on animals that have been trained to hunt by man. Furthermore there is also much correspondence which provides much insight into the game industry its clients and the prospects for its future.<br /> <br /> Horne's venture subsequently became known as the World Jungle Compound in Thousand Oaks California eventually being acquired by 20th Century Fox studios. This archive is a record of a new phase of the entertainment industry. unknown
