Arizona Highways, December 1947 (Classic Color Photography) (Vol. 23, No. 12) Review
Yes, Ansel Adams did color. He sold five of his best photographs to Arizona Highways magazine for its December 1947 edition - the issue that typically began a gift subscription from Arizonans to their family and friends elsewhere in the world, who came to know the state through pictures.
