Published by the Canadian National Railways, this souvenir book promotes travel through the Canadian Rockies and Alaska with colourful pictures. The colours were likely printed in stages over the black-and-white image, as we can see gaps and overlaps between the yellows and blues when we look closely. Compare these images to the colourful pictures produced with Kodachrome film.
