James Eason, Bancroft Library, gives this information about the lost first Yosemite photograph (11/2008):
Mary Hood states, (in YNN v.38, no. 6 (June 1958), the issue that reproduced the image,) that the photograph was found
in the Vance Album at Stanford University, and was not present in the
Rosenblatt album formerly at the Yosemite Museum. While, most unfortunately,
it seems to be true that the photo is “now lost”, it was not lost
from the Yosemite Museum collection, nor from The Bancroft Library which now
holds the Rosenblatt album views.
