Illustrated program for the rodeo and other festivities surrounding Pioneer Day (July 24th), loads of great advertising. "The year 1849 was a year of accomplishment for the Pioneers. Though they were tried by dangers and fears still they toiled and worked to build up their city by the Great Salt Lake. They had achieved much in the two short years they had been in the valley - two years they had been in the valley - two years fraught with hardship and discouragement. It is to their eternal credit that in the face of all their obstacles they continued to 'beat down the desert' which was not to bloom, according to some outsiders. Yes, one hundred years ago this year was indeed a year of accomplishment for these hardy men, women and children. The Days of '47 celebration, under the direction of its capable officers, board and advisors, recalls once again the works and achievements of our early Pioneers." $50 Through the Scenic West on the Burlington 7- Northern Pacific - Burlington Route.

Illustrated with colored reproductions from F. Jay Haynes and T.J. Hileman and twenty maps, four are full page. Rate sheet for the 1929 season laid in. "You will enjoy yourself - have a good time - on one of these tours. They represent a sound, sensible travel plan that is not an experiment in any sense. Experienced railroad officials have arranged the details with the co-operation of the Pullman Company, hotel and major interests, and the National Park Service. The 'escorted tour' idea deserves your consideration in connection with any vacation plan, and especially in case you go alone, these traveling house-parties are ideal, assuring many congenial acquaintances with much in common. You travel without any responsibilities, you see the most, in the best way and with no waste of time." - p. 5 $65 Large Format Temple Block 8- [Johnson, Charles Ellis]. Temple and Tabernacle Salt Lake. [Salt Lake City]: [Sainsbury & Johnson], (c.1890). Large format [15.5 cm x 20 cm] gelatin silver print on a gray mount [23.5 cm x 28 cm] with the title in the lower left corner of the image. Nice image of the Temple Block from the southeast side showing the newly completed Salt Lake Temple with the area just to the south of the Temple empty. This photo is not labeled C.E. Johnson, but we believe the title writing of this photograph is a match to other Sainsbury & Johnson images. "Johnson was one of the most prolific and enterprising photographers on the Mormon scene. He photographed thousands of people in his modern state-of-the-art studio in Salt Lake City." - Nelson Wadsworth 'Set in Stone Fixed in Glass' (pg. 274). $475 Cabin Times 9- [Women in the West].

  • Seagull Monument Salt Lake City, Utah, USA the Seagull Monument Located on Temple Square, Is a Tribute to the History Behind the State Bird of Utah
    Seagull Monument Salt Lake City, Utah, USA The Seagull Monument located on Temple Square, is a tribute to the history behind the state bird of Utah. After the pioneers arrived in the Salt Lake Valley in the summer of 1847, the next win- ter was a mild one. The early settlers planted crops early and were looking forward to the harvest. However, after planting approximately 900 acres of wheat, a “great numbers of large, black crick- ets...came swarming from the foothills literally by millions.”1 Attempts to drown, burn, bury and club the infestation were unsuccessful. The Saints pled to the Lord to deliver them from the plague of crickets, which some likened unto Egypt’s curse of locusts. On June 9th, great fl ocks of seagulls from the Great Salt Lake descended upon the crickets and fed upon them for over three weeks, saving the crops. George W. Bean wrote: “They would come by thousands and gobble up those great fat crickets that were as large as man’s thumb, until they would get about a pint, seemingly, then they would adjourn to the water ditch, take a drink and throw up all their crickets – rest themselves a little, TheThe Seagull MonumentMonument then back to slaying the black ‘monsters’ again.”2 Photo courtesy of Derek J.

  • America File: Salt Lake City by Daniel Akst Travel Holiday December, 1995
    America File: Salt Lake City By Daniel Akst Travel Holiday December, 1995 When the International Olympic Committee finally decided in June to say "this is the right place" in connection with Salt Lake City and the 2002 winter games, it wasn't just echoing Brigham Young, who supposedly uttered those words when he and his Mormon followers, nearly 150 years ago, reached the magnificent void that is now the site of the city. The IOC was echoing a lot of other people as well. Once a sleepy outpost, the Salt Lake region now ranks among America's fastest growing, thanks to a splendid setting, a bevy of charming neighborhoods and a booming local economy, all of which have drawn newcomers in droves. In snatching the Olympics away from Oestersund, Sweden; Sion, Switzerland; and Quebec City, the other locales that vied for them, Salt Lake City saw a chance to finally put itself on the tourist map as well, and so went all out. Even before the IOC voted, the Utahns had five Olympic venues ready, with four more under construction. All are within 55 miles of downtown. Despite its growing prominence and sophistication, though, the city itself remains a town of modest size and friendly faces, one well worth visiting no matter what the season. Although Mormons account for only half its 166,000 residents--the mayor is a woman, a non-Mormon and a Democrat--Salt Lake retains many of its old-time Mormon virtues, standing out today as one of the safest, cleanest, and, I think, most beautiful of American cities.
