Caption: "Camp Curry- Yosemite," c. 1917. Yosemite's Half Dome Village, established by David and Jennie Curry in 1899, was originally called Camp Curry, and later Curry Village. It was designed to provide cheaper accommodations for Yosemite tourists than the resort hotels. The couple rented out furnished tents and provided amenities such as a dining tent. As time progressed, the amenities increased, and some hard-sided cabins created. This photograph shows a bustling scene around a large wood cabin with a wide covered porch. As a result of a legal dispute over trademarked names in the park, Curry Village changed its name to Half Dome Village in 2016.

Caption: "Studebaker Factory. South Bend, Indiana. Sept. 13, 1934." Two buildings of the Studebaker Factory in South Bend are visible in this photograph. The Studebaker brothers started operations in South Bend in 1852, when they established a blacksmith shop and foundry. They soon began building wagons and carriages, demand for which soared with the advent of the Civil War and an increase in migration toward and into the American West. The company gradually phased out wagon production in favor of automobile manufacture in the early twentieth century. Sales declined after World War II, leading to the eventual closure of the factory in 1963.
