This stationery is the same vintage as yesterday’s and, like yesterday’s, features a picture that is also found on a menu card from 1929. Instead of an oval yellow line around the picture, this one features more elaborate red and blue lines, the red and blue of the UP logo. The picture and return address are also arranged a little differently on the page, unfortunately reducing the area available for writing a letter.

The menu card says that the picture is supposed to represent sunset at the North Rim of the Canyon. The colors on the stationery are certainly sunsety, but those on the menu card aren’t. It is likely that the original black-and-white photo was taken in mid-day when sunlight would penetrate deep into the canyon and then any sunset colors were added by the colorists.

Like yesterday’s, this one comes with its own envelope with the return address of Grand Canyon Lodge. The other side has the UP logo.
