F. J. Haynes Three YNP Photos Printed In Germany
Featured in this lot are three, framed F. J. Haynes (1853-1921) Yellowstone National Park photos printed in Germany circa 1900-1910. Frank Jay Haynes, known as F. Jay or the Professor to almost all who knew him, was a professional photographer, publisher, and entrepreneur from Minnesota who played a major role in documenting through photographs the settlement and early history of the great Northwest. The three colored photos are set on a backing board in a nice wood frame and show three different locations in Yellowstone National Park. The left most photo shows Keppler Cascades and is numbered 14, the middle photo shows Old Faithful Geyser and is numbered 13, and the right most photo shows the 300 foot Great Falls waterfall in Yellowstone, numbered 20. The photos and frame show good condition overall with slight wear to the frame but no signs of wear or damage to the photos. The photos measure 9 3/16" L x 6 1/4" W, while the entire piece measures 17 1/8" L x 28 5/8" W x 3/4" D.
