Description

A nice snowy scene of “Yosemite Falls in Winter, Yosemite Valley, California.” Published by Edward H. Mitchell (#1828). Mailed from Yosemite but I can’t read the year on the cancel stamp. It was sent to a woman, care of Mrs. Le Conte in Berkeley. I suspect, but do not know for certain, that this was Helen LeConte (nee Gompertz), wife of Joseph Nisbet Le Conte (aka “Little Joe”). Little Joe was the son of the famous U.C. Berkeley geologist, Joseph LeConte (aka “Big Joe”) after whom the LeConte Memorial was originally named. (See scans of front and back.)
