Summary


Gift; Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities, Boston, Massachusetts; 1933; (DLC/PP-1933:0070).
Date based on use of the 35-star flag in decorations around the hall.

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.
