EDITORS COMMENTS
Yellstone Pete: A Wanderer's Journey Across America (circa 1930s) In this evocative photograph, we encounter Yellstone Pete, a traveling man embarking on an adventure across the vast expanse of America. Accompanied by his team of clouded mules and a wagon adorned with the inscription, "We want to see the faraway places with strange-sounding names," Pete embodies the spirit of exploration and curiosity that has long driven Americans to venture beyond their familiar horizons. The chimney in the background, a remnant of a long-abandoned homestead, serves as a poignant reminder of the transience of human endeavors and the ever-changing landscape of the United States. The card carried by Pete, bearing the witty caption "Oh how we hate to work!," suggests a sense of freedom and a desire for adventure that transcends the daily grind. The team of clouded mules, their coats speckled with the dust of the open road, mirror the weathered appearance of their master, reflecting the hardships and joys of the journey. As Pete and his mules make their way from one state to the next, they carry with them a sense of wonder and anticipation, eager to discover the strange-sounding names and faraway places that lie ahead. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era of American travel, when the open road beckoned to the intrepid and the curious, and the promise of new discoveries awaited around every bend.
