Summary

Stereograph shows a line of men standing outside a recruitment office looking for men to enlist in the army for the bonuses offered by local, state, or federal agencies.

(DLC/PP-2012:069.07)

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.
