Featured in this lot are four (4) original F. J. Haynes photographs of Yellowstone National Park, circa 1930s. These are all large format photographs of Yellowstone National Park and the Cody Highway and are all stamped with the Haynes hallmark. 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. He became both the official photographer of the Northern Pacific Railway and of Yellowstone National Park as well as operating early transportation concessions in the park. His photographs were widely published in articles, journals, and books, and turned into stereogrpahs and postcards in the late 19th and early 20th century. The photographs are numbered and titled, "28328 Grand Canyon, Artist Pt.", "37766G Holy City, Cody Highway", "35394 Pilot Peak and Index Peak", "36991 Mount Washburn From Highway, Yellowstone National Park". The photos are stamped on the bottom right reading, "Haynes Yellowstone Park". All photos show good condition overall with little to no wear present and no signs of obvious damage present. The photos each measure 11"W x 14"L approximately.
