The album contains over 30 landscape photographs of the Bonita Vista estate owned by Mr. and Mrs. E.V. Price at 1201 So. Sheridan Road, Highland Park, IL. There are no provided dates associated with the photographs. Attached loosely on the inside of the first page there is a small handwritten packet located inside a vanilla colored enveloped that lists some of the locations on the estate and gives descriptions about the photographs themselves. There is also information about Mr. Edward Valentine Price and the gardener Albert Weisenberger.

This photograph album belonged to Marion and Elise Weisenberger, the latter of which became Elise Gieser through marriage. The stamp on the inside cover states that this book was gifted to the two girls during the summer of 1920, but contains photographs that dates between 1915-1922. Subjects include Elise and Marion Weisenberger, their mother Elise and father Albert, Aunt Julia, Hilda, a woman by the name of Hester, and various landscape photographs, including many involving the Gardener’s Cottage that the Weisenberger family lived in at the Bonita Vista estate.

Most pictures are labelled by the original owners and detail the dates and persons of interest in their pictures themselves. Subjects include Bill [Windsor] Gieser, John Claiche, Annie Gieser, Bertha Koller, Bill Christensen, Ruth Rhinesmith, Arthur and Mary Rogers, Mary St. Peter, Mr./Mrs. Baud, Mr./Mrs. Mizen, various unlisted subjects, scenery, house fires, the Gieser house, and others.
