About this Item
Cabinet card. Albumen photograph [11.5 cm x 17.5 cm] on a black mount [12.5 cm x 18 cm] The Eastman Company backstamp. Nice condition. Bird's-eye view of Bingham looking down canyon. "Bingham is a little like the gambler. Crowded together in their gulch without bringing-up or ear-washing, the people of the camp have evolved into a community, though it took a long time and there were a lot of graves in the local Boot Hill before the transformation came about. Maybe the copper sulphide in the soil destroyed the germs of evil in those old rowdies as it destroyed the typhus germs in the garbage-laden creek. Or maybe the camp simply grew up. At any rate Bingham gets along better with the rest of the state now." - Wallace Stegner 'Mormon Country' p.268. Seller Inventory # 4425
