Between 1881 and 1891, photographer Frank J. Haynes made more than five hundred glass-plate negatives of Yellowstone for the Northern Pacific Railroad and his own photograph concession business. MTHS Photograph Archives manager Jeff Malcomson surveys Haynes’s 1880s work and explains the Montana Historical Society’s efforts to digitize the collection in Visualizing the Early Park: Digitizing Haynes’s 1880s Yellowstone Photographs.
