Salt Lake City, Utah photograph collection

 Collection
Identifier: P0251

Scope and Contents

This collection contains a good assortment of early Salt Lake City images. A good feel for the evolution of the East Main Street area can be gained from looking at the many C.W. Carter carte de visites. Several other locales and features have many images in the collection, such as Anderson's Folly, Brigham Young Monument, Brigham Young's residences, and open space in the valley. The prints in the oversize box, though they are not excellent, are labeled and show many important sites of the early days.
