Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. First Edition. 1st printing. Folio (10 1/4" x 13 7/8") subtly, but beautifullly decorated wraps. (32pp). Glossy stock. 12 b/w images (image size 8 1/4" x 11 5/8") by Atkeson with titles by Manly. This are snowy, winter photos taken in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Atkeson (1907-1990) was one of the finest landscape photographers of the Pacific Northwest and he was widely honored, especially in his home of Oregon. Many of his books were elegantly published by Northwest Graphic Arts Center. This title does not appear in his Wiki bio and bibliography. The photographs in this volume are so finely dotted half-tones that they they almost look like as nice as photogravures. Of the twelve images, one has a 4 1/2" hairline crease running to the edge of the sheet in the lower corner, and this is the only reason we grade this copy down to near fine. A rare and desirable item by a master landscape photographer.

Historically significant, extensive collection of ca. 500 original gelatin silver photos, taken and collected by an Oregon mountaineer, writer and advertising agent, Merle W. Manly. In the 1920s, he was a member of the "Mazamas" alpine club, founded in Portland in 1894 (the third oldest in the United States after the Appalachian Mountain Club, 1876 and Sierra Club, 1892; see more ). During this time, Manly was a member of the Mazama Executive Council (1926-1932, with breaks) and several committees, its vice-president (1928), official historian (1931-1932) and the editor (1924-1928) of the club's annual publication "Mazama: A record of mountaineering in the Pacific Northwest." The "Mazama" published three of Manly's illustrated reports of the club's mountaineering expeditions: "The West side climb of Mt. Hood in 1923" (1923, p. 21), "The Conquest of Mt. Logan" (1925, p. 85) and "Next year, Mt. Rainier" (1926, p. 106). Manly published at least two works in a book form: an advertising brochure "A trip through the land of wool?" (Oregon City Woolen Mills, 1924), present in this collection; and an illustrated account of a winter ascent of Mount Hood "When winter comes" (Portland, Or., 1933). In his main time, Manly worked in the Portland advertising industry and in the 1940s was the chairman of the Oregon branch of the American Association of Advertising Agencies (The Oregonian, 15 October 1947, p. 17). The two albums date back to Manly's active mountaineering years with the "Mazamas" and document at least fourteen of the club's expeditions in the Cascades in the 1920s. One of the earliest is "Mazama Outing, Mt. Hood, 1923," with over 20 images, including various views of Paradise Park, Eden Park, Barrett Spur, "Ice falls of Reid Glacier," two excellent large views of the Reid Glacier (one outlining the Mazamas party's route), a large view of "Mt. Hood from Eden Park, showing route of West Side Climb made by Bob Osborne & M[erle]. W.M[anly].," several views of the party camp, "my tent <?> hidden by the trees," a scene with climbers going up the snow slope - "M.W.M. 2nd from bottom," &c. Very interesting are the photos of Manly's climb on "St. Helens, Labor Day 1924 with Everett Philpoe and Herb Allstadt." Eighteen photos include views "across the crater," of St. Helens' high slopes, glaciers and crevasses, a portrait of "Ranger, M.W.M., Herb Allstadt" posing in front of the cupola cabin on Mt. St. Helens lookout site, "Harmony Falls, Spirit Lake," "Gold mine camp on shore of Spirit Lake," the shores of Spirit Lake and St. Helens' silhouette, which changed irreversibly after the May 1980 eruption. Two other photos, dated "1/4/25" show Spirit Lake and a group of hikers posing on shore. Over eighty photos from the series "Mount Jefferson, 1925" include views of mountain scenery, the climbers ascending in a line, reaching the summit, camping; slopes, high altitude terrain and crevasses of Mt. Jefferson, &c. Six additional images from the group, titled "North Side climb, Mt. Jefferson, 1925" include "north-west view of Mt. Jefferson from West Butte, showing route of ascent crossing base of high glacial cirque topped by 400 ft. spire," "south horn of main pinnacle, Jefferson," "Prehistoric Monster," "main pinnacle of Mt. Jefferson from saddle directly to the north; climbers scaled this peak by skirting its base to the right and climbing up a chimney on its west face" (with a track outlined in white); and a view "taken from summit of Mt. Jefferson, looking to the north and showing route of ascent after passing "Prehistoric Monster," cross shows spot where picture of main pinnacle on preceding page was taken." A group of five photos, titled "Research Committee Work, 1925" shows "lines run to measure movement of Elliot Glacier, 1925, line I for glacier proper and Li.
