The very distinctive body style was built by Howcroft of West Hartlepool, and they were almost exclusively to be found in the North East, owned by the major showmen who would have been the only people who could afford them. Not many have survived, but we have one that was owned by Randall Williams. The curved top panels were solid mahogany, this is the only one I have seen with the outer edges of the panels painted and the centres varnished, with gold and white lines as a border, it looks amazing.

I believe this is actually not near Creede, CO at all. A horizon this flat can only be seen near the front range in Colorado. I would guess that this is taken on US-40 climbing Mount Vernon Canyon west of Golden, CO, facing west. The hill in the center just below the horizon would then be Green Mountain south of Golden. These days, I-70 takes up most of this valley, as you can see in this shot facing uphill: www.dot.state.co.us/50anniversary/images/I70Photos/I70Mou...
