Digitized stereographic cards from the Stereograph Collection. Approximately 5,000 cards from a total of over 52,000 have been digitized by early 2006. The online images feature cities and towns around the world, expeditions and expositions, industries, disasters, and portraits of Native Americans, presidents, and celebrities. Particular concentrations include: views of the American west taken in the 1870s as part of geological and geographical surveys; the American Civil War; the Spanish American War; and stereo views taken by amateurs and shared through the Amateur Photographic Exchange Club. Versos of cards have been digitized if they have text on them.
