Scope and Content

One album containing 60 unlabeled photographs. Only two photographs include any sort of identifier. One has a boat partially named “...ce of Quebec,” and another includes a cabin labeled "????? Camp" with a commercial "Jersey Cream" sign mounted nearby. The photographs document a hunting and fishing trip, with many pictures of canoeing, lakes, rivers, fishing and caught fish, and of hunting and hunted animals, notably moose and elk. The 8"x6" photos are printed on paper, and mounted in a cabinet card album (Apex Album, patent pending. Manufactured and sold by the Heinn Specialty Co., Milwaukee, Wis.).
