These photographs taken by the Kolb Brothers in 1911, opened up the splendors of the Grand Canyon to the people of the United States. They were about the fourth party to successfully traverse the canyon. These pictures were published by the Arizona-Campbell Art Co. The pictures are in the the original album with a picture of one of the brothers suspended from a rope, taking a picture. This is truly a wonderful example of early photography as well as the wonders of the Grand Canyon. The photos are great.
