Most of the photochroms in the collection here have names printed on them. Sometimes we can't read the information since, over the years (more than 100), it has blended/faded into the printing of the photo itself. For example, in the first photochrom below the name information is printed in a dark golden color not that much different than the color of the soil in the background. If we can read the information it is usually given under the photo.
This is our 4th, and final, post on this subject for a while. Check out our previous posts of Really Old Pics of Yellowstone:

From visiting YNP we can say that the location above is called Golden Gate. There is no name printed on the photo. Take a look at another view of this on an old stereo view posted on the web here.
This will complete the photochrom posts for a while. Thanks for stopping by John's Island.
I enjoyed looking at these vintage photos of YNP. Awesome!
