Other remarks:
I have two magic lantern slides (65 [Type 1] and 55), a lantern slide print (65 [Type 3]), a photo (4157), a book (Y-SP), and a sterling spoon of this view
A magic lantern slide (65 [Type 2]) and stereoview (4596) are very similar to this view but look carefully at the feet and fishing pole positions
Need to determine the publisher and if this postcard has a number
One of the few views that shows the fish actually in the geyser water
Look at magazine HW or book YNP-TWW for some unique artist's rendering of these two fishermen
