Excelsior Geyser


For some reason, the same Haynes photo of an eruption of Excelsior was used exclusively for years, as if it was the only known photo of Excelsior in eruption.

Maybe it was the only or best one he had, but there are others. Here's that photo, tinted for a postcard.

Here's a slightly different stereoview.

Next are a couple of Haynes cabinet prints. These were photographs larger than a postcard mounted to cardboard backing.

Finally, here's another eruption view, taken by Ingersoll.
