    Hi all.
    I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this for me.
    Original framed panoramic view of Yosemite "Gates of the Valley
    Label reads genuine oil colored photo. By Bear Photo.
    Not a true panoramic as each of the three sections has a number on the bottom.
    I did find a Bear photo company in San Francisco from the early 1900's with photo's of the 1906 earthquake but not sure if it is the same company.
    The frame measures 22" x 10" tall
    Any and all comments and information would be helpful.

    On further examination those two links look like the same photograph with different frames. Mine is three photographs with each one numbered. My frame appears to be older also. Any guesses on age? All of the photo's I've so far seen are form 1906 to mid 1930's

    I thought the Worthpoint one looked a lot like yours, with different photos...

    I don't have a guess on age except for the broad range that you listed that you've seen with other photos.

    You could try google photographic copyright search. I can’t read the numbers on your pictures.
