Description

Offered is an original Oct. 1935 Depression-era gelatin-silver snapshot photograph showing two hunters with their dogs and a black bear in a rural farmyard/camp setting. Under magnification there is subtle hand-tinting to the cheeks; the print itself is black-and-white silver gelatin. The reverse is blank (not a postcard back) with pencil “Oct 1935” and a large “2Ă—” lab/owner notation-typical for reprint instructions. A strong vernacular hunting image with dogs and trophy interest.
