This is a scarce 1928 "Haynes New Guide and Motorists' Complete Road Log of Yellowstone National Park" by J.E. Haynes, official photographer and concessionaire of Yellowstone National Park. This revised edition is approved by the National Park Service, Department of the Interior. The guide contains more than 100 maps, photographs, illustrations, and diagrams. The guide is complete with the fold out map inside the back cover. Jack Haynes, creator of Haynes Picture Shops, and his father, Frank, were internationally renown for their photographs of Yellowstone National Park. Frank J. Haynes (1853 – 1921) and his son, Jack Ellis Haynes (1884 – 1962) are considered to be the photo historians of Yellowstone National Park. Their beautiful hand tinted photographs document the early history of the Park. Prior to the advent of color photography, the Haynes Studios of Yellowstone National Park and St. Paul, MN perfected the process of hand coloring the black and white photos of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This thirty-ninth revised 1928 edition of Haynes Guides written by Jack Ellis Haynes is a wonderful glimpse into Yellowstone National Park as it has been documented in the Haynes guides since 1910 – first by Frank Jay Haynes and then later by his son Jack. The vintage black and white photography by Jack Ellis Haynes captures the beauty and power of the many natural phenomenon found in only a few places in the world thus they fascinate us with their behavior and striking beauty. The expertise of these two-family members, along with the National Park Service, have combined to create a wonderfully historic view of our first National Park using text, maps and vintage photos. The longstanding value of the guides, a staple in Yellowstone Park from 1890 to 1964, one can safely say are attributed to the Haynes legacy. The guide is bound with the Art Nouveau style boards on the front and rear. The Haynes Guide is in good condition. It measures 5"W x 6.75"L. The fold out map measures 9" x 12"L.
