Emery and Ellsworth Kolb were pioneering photographers of the “great canyon” of the Colorado River, having arrived at the canyon in 1901. In 1912 they completed a boat trip down the Colorado River and filmed their adventure with a movie camera – the first to do so. Begun in 1904, the Kolb Brothers built their photographic studio and home right on the shear edge of the canyon. Today, their studio is restored and serves as an art gallery, exhibit venue, and bookstore.
The “Historic Kolb Studio” stamp is inside the restored studio at the passport stamp station just to the right of the entrance.
