Photographers:
The
Detroit Publishing Company created its negative files
by sending its own photographers out on the road and purchasing
other photographers’ files. In his early years
with the company, Jackson traveled for months at a time,
taking his own photographs and examining other photographers’
files for possible purchase.
Photographers
had to carry heavy equipment to capture views such as this
one at Yellowstone National Park, photographed by William
H. Jackson, about 1892.
