Clearly facial hair was a sign of quality for most! ;-)
Thanks. Researching the early photographers working in later Mt. Rainier NP, I was amazed at the number shortly after Kodak released sheet film. We can complain all we want about working with a 4x5 these days, but it's nothing compared to photographers had to do then. Even getting places was work enough, but then add the camera/lenses of the day with the technology for transporting them, you definitely had to be dedicated.

I really think this sort of thing is fascinating. Makes me wonder just how hard it'd be to track down a functional example of one of those cameras. That'd be awesome.
