    i got this one on ebay the other day. this is Mount Tamalpais in Marin in the 1890s. It's a little smaller than my other hand-colored photos, but it's a familiar scene. Mount Tam is pretty special to those of us here in the Bay Area. The back side of it has remained undeveloped - thankfully - due to a very well-planned populist movement. it's not common that people win over big money in this world. nice to see when it does!
