PHOTO NOTE : The stereo-print made from the original glass-plate negative was trimmed down (taking some of the image off the top and bottom) in order to make it fit the standard 3 1/2 x 7 inch stereo-mount seen above.

 

The BELOW LINK takes you to a rare half-contact print made from the full height of the negative. It allows you see the "extra" top-and-bottom portions of the image that were trimmed to make the stereoview. The original negative was lost in the earthquake and fire of September 1st, 1923.
