large 1970's framed photo, World Pro Skiing race, Snowbird Utah, nice - $85 - (Libby, MT)

This auction is for a large framed photo by John Hennessy. This image is a close-up of a ski racer during a World Pro Skiing race @ Snowbird Ski Resort in Utah. World Pro Skiing was the professional ski racing tour created in 1969 by ski racing pioneer Bob Beattie. It probably dates to the early 1970's (note the bamboo ski gates). A person may be able to identify the racer by going to the World Pro Skiing history webpage. John Hennessy was from Libby, Montana. From what I heard, he was an Army photographer in Viet Nam and continued photography as a profession after the war. In the 1970's he photographed ski racers among other subjects and settled in Kalispell, Montana where he opened a studio. The photo measures 10.75 x 15 inches and is double matted in a 22 x 17 inch frame. A nice addition to any collection of vintage ski photos.
