Summary

Gottheim collection code: GCW 31A.

Copyright 1865, by J.W. Campbell.

Forms part of the Larry Gottheim Collection of stereographs and other early photographs (Library of Congress)

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.
