Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Oblong folio. Measuring 13½" x 10". Screw bound, black cloth flexible boards with mounted labels, "Photographs". Contains 392 gelatin silver black and white or sepia toned photographs measuring between 1" x ½" and 9½" x 7" with some captions and one large 48" x 6" panorama photograph. Edgewear with some pages detached but present, very good with near fine photographs with some fading. A photo album kept by Ben Hollander from his time at college in 1913 and continuing to his life after school through 1946. Hollander attended Berea College in Berea, Kentucky. During the summer months and later in his life, he visits several other states including Pennsylvania, North Dakota, Washington D.C., Utah, and other cities in Kentucky. The album begins with Hollander’s invitations and name plates for the Alpha Zeta Literary Society at Berea. A full group photograph shows the young men in the fraternity with their names captioned below. Other posed group shots include the sorority chapter of the Literary Society. The album features a wide variety of photos from group vacations with friends to peculiar shots around the school, one of which is on the front pastedown with a photograph of two young men carrying a large branch of mistletoe in 1913. There are several pictures of farms with horses, which Hollander seemed to fancy, as the pictures are well composed. He also takes pictures of horse carriages and some of his fellow classmates riding horses. Many of the pictures showing Hollander hiking around parks and lakes in Pennsylvania. During these trips, someone else is taking pictures of Hollander reading, which he does in several photographs. The person is unknown but possibly a girlfriend of admirer. These photographs of Hollander include captions like, "Cute Little Thing," and "He’s so funny," whether they were captioned by the person taking the photo or sarcastically captioned by Hollander himself, it is unknown. Of the ephemera, there are some small cutouts from magazines, mostly of quotes and poems, "my creed, I would be pure, for there are those trust me; I would be brave, for there is much to dare; I would be friend of all the friendless." Also included are tickets and scholastic ribbons, one for the University of North Dakota’s band concert inscribed to Hollander and a ribbon for special access to the event. A later photograph from 1916 shows Hollander in a photograph for naval hospital Staff in Washington D.C. Hollander has a couple pictures of his fellow soldiers and the hospital staff as well as a camp leader for a boy’s camp. In 1931, Hollander is a camp leader for a Boy Scout Troop and the YMCA while still enlisted in the military. At this time he is seen much older, with his own personal horse and a family. Some of the photographs show a woman and children though their last names are not captioned. Many of the photographs are candids and sometimes hand cut into shapes, framing the subject from the background of the photograph. An interesting man’s photo album during his life at college in 1913 through to his military service and family life up until 1946.
