Buffalo Bill’s Trip to the Grand Canyon
Scare group of 4 photographic images of William Cody’s trip to the North Rim with Brigham Young’s son John W. Young. With a scheme to bring International hunters to the area and establish the “International Shooting Club” the trip included “Arizona” John Burke, Prentiss Ingraham, Johnny Baker, “Pony” Bob Haslam and photographer W.H. Broach. The images are 7 1/2” x 9 1/2” each, mounted on photo board with attached matting 11” x 13” overall. Appears that these early prints are second generation made for the purpose publicity for the outdoor club plan. One photo shows a first generation tear. Some staining, mostly to the mats. Surface scratches and wear, tack holes. Included is a Winter 2003 copy of Points West, Journal of the Buffalo Bill Historical Center with a story of the trip.
