In 1939, twenty-six year old Herb Ringer
moved from New Jersey to start a new life in the American West. He settled
in Reno, Nevada; in the half century since, Herb has traveled to the far
corners of the Western United States hundreds of times, covering more
than a million miles...and always with his camera.
-
Herb's photographs show the West in
a quieter time, before the tourist revolution, before the migration of
urbanites to small rural western towns, before interstate freeways and
McDonald's and Denny's. Before mountain bikes and lycra and utility 4WD
vehicles with power windows. Before the New West, there was the Old West.
Herb's photographs are a chronicle of the last days of a bygone time.
