Item description from seller

Two albums containing 210 photographs. Oblong octavos [14 cm x 21.5 cm]. Thin leather wraps. "W. D. Hollister" stamped in gilt on the front wraps of two of the albums. The covers are rubbed, and the covers of one of the albums are detached. A handful of pages are detached and tucked in. With a handful of manuscript notations of dates and subjects. With a Xerox of notes identifying many of the subjects and scenes. Images capture domestic, leisure, travel and recreation activities, as well as farming life and nature scenes. A large collection of photographs, well-identified and covering numerous states, including Wisconsin, Minnesota, Colorado, Montana, and Utah. The albums belonged to Warren Dale Hollister, who was born in Delavan, Wisconsin in 1874. He died in Denver, Colorado in 1970. In 1904, he was married to Grace Stewart Hollister, with whom he had two children, Edward and Jean. W. D. Hollister was manager of the Continental Oil Company's business at Albuquerque, NM. Prior to that, he worked for the same company in Denver, CO. He was also vice-president of Englewood State Bank of Chicago, IL., and president of Wisconsin State Bank for a time. It is noteworthy to mention that Saint Louis Art Museum holds an ink and watercolor drawing entitled "Study of Textile" by W. D. Hollister. There are quite a few photographs of W. D. Hollister, himself, among the family photographs. One charming photograph depicts Hollister with a woman who appears to be his wife Grace. In this photo, a smiling Hollister is wearing striped pants and smoking a cigar. The albums also include photographs of Tilden Farms in Delavan (WI), a farm in New Lisbon (WI), a farm in Kinbrae (MN), the Public Library in Denver (CO), Dock at St. Maries (ID), and several photographs of Salt Lake City.…
