The Kodak Brownie no. 2 roll-film camera was introduced around 1901, and was still very popular well into the 1930's  It took no. 117 roll film (2 1/4" square, equivalent to today's 120 roll film.)  My wife, a semi-pro photographer, has a couple of them she plays with from time to time, and that big negative takes amazing photos.  It shoots at a shutter speed about 1/40th of a second.  I expect one of these was used for the photos on the Holdrege line.

I find it amazing that someone was out there taking photos.  It was probably roll film as it would be difficult to set up a tripod on snow.  Large format such as 120 or 116 capture a lot of detail.  Exposures with snow are difficult enough.  Without this photography, this topic wouldn't be discussed.  Someone back then made a lot of people happy today.
