Re: The San Juan and LIFE Magazine

I agree, quite an impressive collection. It would appear that this was a several day shoot, and the photographer seemed to experiment quite a bit. Nice to see the lady photographer also taking pictures.

Too bad captions weren't supplied. Anyone know who the official in front of the map was?

Storm windows were common in the northern climates both for houses and railroad cars. They would be removed in the summer. Bob Richardson used these D&RGW windows for many of his original displays of photographs and papers. There are still a few left on the wall at the current Colorado Railroad Museum.
