description

Summary

Stereograph showing bird's-eye view of marchers in Lincoln's funeral procession proceeding down Broadway away from the viewer.

Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1865, by E. & H.T Anthony & Co., in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the U.S. for the So. District of New-York.

During the Civil War, photographers produced thousands of stereoviews. Stereographs were popular during American Civil War. A single glass plate negative capture both images using a Stereo camera. Prints from these negatives were intended to be looked at with a special viewer called a stereoscope, which created a three-dimensional ("3-D") image. This collection includes glass stereograph negatives, as well as stereograph card prints.
