Call Number	X-21906
Title	W. E. Galverts lunch house & stage station near Boulder Falls, Boulder Canon
Creator(s)	Sturtevant, J. Bevier (Joseph Bevier), 1851-1910.
Summary	View of a stage stop by North Boulder Creek, Boulder County, Colorado; shows men, horses, a covered coach, a frame restaurant and stable. A woman is on the porch; a wagon carries a crate.
Date	[between 1875 and 1890?]
Notes	Formerly F7207.; Title inked on original and reproduced in photoprint; typed paper on back reads: "The Half-Way House, just above Boulder Falls in Boulder Canon, about 10 miles from the town of Boulder. As the caption on the face of the photo indicates, the establishment catered to stage passengers and other wayfarers and had stable facilities for the stage teams, which were often changed at this point. The buildings have long since been razed, and only those who knew the spot would be able to point out where they once stood. The date of the photograph is not known. The photographer, J. B. Sturtevant, of Boulder, was a picturesque character who wore his hair long, and often dressed in fringed buckskins. He claimed to be an intimate of Buffalo Bill, and called himself "Rocky Mountain Joe."; R7100219066
