Interesting 6" x 9.5" photograph album containing 198 original snapshot photographs from 1922 to 1925, complete, with two photographs detached from the leaves. The album is centered primarily on Minnesota, with approximately 40 photographs taken in Montana, and documents a lively mix of personal, work, and travel scenes with especially appealing railroad, roadside, and regional views. The Minnesota portion includes identified views of Gateway Park, Minneapolis dated July 1922; Duluth, Minnesota; Jay Cooke Park with its swinging bridge; Carlton Motor Co.; and a notable group of photographs identified "1923 State Traffic Census" and "Moorhead Road." Several photographs name individuals, adding strong documentary interest. There are also engaging images of road crews, camps, bridges, garages, storefronts, automobiles, and small-town life. The Montana section, comprising roughly 40 photographs, appears to date largely from 1925 and includes identified views of Frenchtown, Montana dated July 23, 1925; Missoula, Montana; De Smet, Montana; and the Blackfoot River. Particularly appealing are the railroad images, including Northern Pacific equipment and locomotive views in Missoula, C.M. & St. P. tracks, and additional trackside train scenes. Scenic photographs of valleys, rivers, mountain country, and suspension bridges give this portion of the album a strong western travel character. A particularly fun group centers on transportation and roadside Americana, including an early service station, a Carlton welding and wrecking service truck, railroad machinery, and other commercial and industrial scenes. Altogether, the album offers much more than ordinary family snapshots, combining vernacular portraiture with transportation, infrastructure, and regional travel imagery across the Upper Midwest and Northern Rockies. Album measures 6" x 9.5". The front cover is detached. A few photographs are taped at the corners with old Scotch tape. Two photographs are detached, but the album is otherwise complete, with all 198 images present.
