About This Item
Johnson Books, 1986. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Dustjacket . 9x6x1. In Very Good+ condition. Monograph on photographer Clark Blickensderfer (b.Denver 1882) who became well known for his pictorial images of the Rocky Mountain west during the 1920's. 64 black and white plates with brief comments on the opposite page. Blickensderfer began using the camera as a utilitarian tool in the early 1910s, making photographic records of his frequent excursions into Coloradoâs Rocky Mountain National Park. Appropriately, his first published photograph appeared in a 1915 mountaineering annual. Blickensderferâs photographs reflect his great love of the outdoors. He liked to camp and photograph the splendors of the Rockies, and his keen interest in birds is evident in his ornithological photographs. In addition, he turned his camera on the architecture and lifestyle of southwestern Indians. Blickensderfer showed his work into the early 1930s, when he sent photographs to annual exhibitions of the Colorado Mountain Club, of which he was a charter member.
