An original 4.5x3" vintage photo from an album of photos taken by a western U.S. traveler in the 1920s and 1930s. The surname Probst appears numerous times in this set of photos, perhaps the family of the photographer. Photo is likely one of a kind. Professionally packaged in a rigid mailer for safe delivery.
Photo Overview
This photo showcases the Old Burlington Hotel in Cody, Wyoming. The image features a two-story wooden building with a chimney, several windows, and a front porch. The surrounding landscape is open, with sparse vegetation and nearby smaller buildings, suggesting a rural setting. The photo reflects early 20th-century architecture typical of that region.
The Old Burlington Hotel in Cody was a significant establishment likely serving travelers and locals during the early 1900s. Cody, known for its proximity to Yellowstone National Park, was a hub for tourists exploring the American West. The hotel might have played a role in accommodating these visitors and contributing to the economic growth of the area. In early August 1932, possibly around the time this photo was taken, Cody might have seen increased activity as tourists flocked the region.
Condition: Fair to good antique condition. Please see photos for scans of the surface. The back side shows remnants from having been part of an album.
