Portrait of Dickinson College janitor Henry Watts posing with a number of items including a bucket, broom, anatomical poster, globe, furnace and lantern slide projector in February 1862. He also has a number of keys strung across his chest and is holding his hat in his left hand. Taken by Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member Charles Himes and originally published as a stereoview.
View taken from the third floor of the Logan House Hotel showing the town of Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1860. Taken by Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member Joseph Miller Wilson and originally published as a stereoview.
Portrait of a man posing at the door of the Weeping Willow schoolhouse in Chester County, Pennsylvania, c. 1860. The small building looks like it is probably a one-room schoolhouse. Attributed to Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member Joseph Miller Wilson and originally published as a stereoview.
View of Union General Philip Kearny's house, known to locals as Kearny Castle, in what would become Kearny, New Jersey, 1862. The photo was taken a few months before Kearny was killed at the Battle of Chantilly in September 1862. The house was also known as Bellegrove Chateau and Kearny Manor and seems to have been demolished in 1927 after it was sold at auction in 1926. Taken by Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member William Mead and originally published as a stereoview.
View of a billiard room building on an unidentified plantation in South Carolina, 1860. Taken by Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member Edward Cottenet and originally published as a stereoview. The only other stereoview taken by Cottenet that I can find online is one that features another large tree with other buildings behind it that was probably taken on the same plantation.
"On the old fortification at Valley Forge." View of a section of Revolutionary War-era fortifications at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, c. 1862. Taken by Amateur Photographic Exchange Club member Samuel Fisher Corlies. Originally published as a stereoview. I think that the trees look to bare for this to have been taken in May as the Library of Congress site states so probably the May date on the card only pertains to the printing date.
