Home Movie: Abe Doty Collection: 005221 (silent)

Description: Atmospheric Yellowstone reel, unusual in the richness of sky photography with erupting geysers and richly sculpted storm clouds combined throughout the reels. In one sequence a jet streaks across the sky, leaving a contrail that frames a steaming geyser, expressing the camera's fascination with the jet age. With a companion wearing a fringed suede jacket appearing in some sequences and a 1964 Jeep Wagoneer, as well as the road trip trope of feeding bears.
