[Geysers] Geyser photos

If I visualize boardwalks in the bottom photo (link), I picture Penta with Spaz in the background.

I remember Phil Landis took a photo of either Big Cub or Lioness back in the late 1980s. He was working for Rick Hutchinson at the time. I remember seeing this photo somewhere in print and it looked like a Lion eruption. I just can't remember if it was Lioness or Big Cub.

     Do you guys do requests?  I've always wanted to see a picture of Lioness in eruption.  I've seen several old photos with the pool boiling and overflowing (such as http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%20W.H.%20%20192 and http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%20W.H.%20%20193 -- I think these are Lioness, yeah?), but have yet to see photographic evidence that it actually erupts. 

     Also, several years ago I saw a picture of Daisy's Thief labeled "Dewey Geyser."  It was a black-and-white print, I think in a book or report, but I've forgotten where.  If I remember correctly, there was some note with the picture about how Spelendid had recently become quiet but "Dewey" had stepped up to take its place.  Anyone know the source?  It's the only picture I've ever seen of it. 

     Speaking of mystery geysers, here's a fun one from the USGS archives that I wasn't aware Jackson had photographed:

     Try to picture it with a bunch of boardwalk and you may have an easier time identifying it.
