Softcover. Zustand: Very Good. Quarto measuring 9.5" x 11.5". Brown paper wrappers with raised labels reading "Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument Bucky Reeves" on the front wrapper. Contains 76 sepia-toned or black and white photographs measuring between 2" x 2" and 4.5" x 5" with captions. Very good album with some fading, chips, and slight mustiness with near fine photographs. A photo album kept by a New Jersey nature photographer, Bucky Reeves, while visiting the West Coast in the 1950s. Most of the photos show a trip to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument in Arizona. The album shows the natural beauty of Arizona with a focus on clouds and water. Reeves also featured the landscape of Arizona with hills, cactuses, and views of the desert. Reeves also photographed Chiricahua National Park also in Arizona including a photo of the balanced rock formation. Later photos show a trip to Joshua Tree, California, Crater Lake, Oregon, and two of nature photography in New York. A nice collection of mid-century nature photography with an emphasis on the West.
