In the Maine woods
A 1904 promotional booklet issued by the Passenger Department of the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad in Bangor, Maine, to attract hunters and anglers to the northern Maine woods. The pictures are black-and-white photographs of a log cabin by a river, a hunter posed beside a downed moose in snow, a moose wading through a lake, and a rowboat on still water. A designer could take from them the plain, documentary look of early outdoor photography and its rustic, wilderness-tourism subject matter.
