Showing panoramas of Brig and Naters, quarries and tunnels, workers, machines, factories, locomotives, accommodation and offices, etc. No other copy is listed in public libraries worldwide through KVK.

The prints mostly somewhat curved (due to the mounts), partly slightly faded in the margins, occasionally scratched, the mounts mostly somewhat foxed and browned. The panorama of Brig foxed. The album somewhat dusty, faintly spore stained, minimally rubbed and bumped. Overall in good condition.
