Manuscript: Prospectus for My Camera in the National Parks, 1950
Scope and Contents
This collection contains approximately half-a-dozen photographs by Ansel Adams spanning the 1920s to the 1960s. The photographs primarily depict national parks in the American West such as Glacier National Park, Yosemite National Park, and the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California. Some of them are silver prints, and black-and-white images of landscapes such as changing seasons and rivers and mountain ranges. Some also contain inscriptions in pencil, and the collection also contains a greeting card with a birth announcement of a relative with a folded greeting card, and a prospectus entitled My Camera in the National Parks created by Adams. It also contains one folder of conservation files undertaken in 1989 and duplicates contained on kodak slides in a small file folder.
