    Gettysburg stereo photo

    Started sorting through photos & negatives accumulated by grandparents and ran across this stereo card (actual silver gelatin prints mounted on cardboard) that was photographed & published by B. W. Kilburn.

    Cool find in the photos.

    I've seen a few more that have documented CW sites.

    That's a good one.

    MichaelB. . . I have no clue other than what is printed on the front of this stereo card. . . my next step is to try to "google map" this area to determine the original location from where this scene was photographed. By the way, that's a rather nice photo you have. Do you know when it was taken? The stereo card I have, I suspect, was made between 1877 and 1909.

    Thanks for your interest,
