1923ref. 29466Meadville PA: Keystone View Company 1923. One of the first 4 editions. A complete set of 300 stereo views in their boxed slipcases the accompanying book by Major Joseph Hanson and the stereo viewer. The stereo views are a combination of images originally commissioned or photographed in-house by Keystone and cards numbered with a "V" prefix which denotes negatives originally produced by Underwood & Underwood. The set illustrates the war in all its facets including battlefields soldiers and activities on the home front. This was the most comprehensive set on the war issued by Keystone the largest and most prominent publisher of stereoscopic photographs in the United States and by the 1920s the only major publisher in the world with offices in London Paris Sydney Cape Town Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo. In 1918 they were one of the few publishers permitted to photograph World War I battlefields and military operations. The geographic locations included Germany Italy Turkey Gallipoli the Balkans Serbia and the United States; however military activities in Belgium and on the French front are most strongly represented comprising over one-third of the collection. Within these locations images detail troops city & battlefield ruins trenches medical operations troop provisioning victory parades and peace talks. Most interesting is the portrayal of the aircraft used during the war the first war that aircraft were used on a large scale. A series of views depict the aircraft including biplanes zeppelins and observation balloons. A card entitled "Scouts Old and New French cavalry and Army Airplane" shows a group of men on horseback looking into the sky at a biplane. Another interesting card is an aerial photograph "The Eyes of the Army- View of German Town from American Airplane". Other images of war machinery include warships U-boats and machine guns. Other interesting images include African-American soldiers returning home; women at work on the front and the use of dogs at the front. Generally there is an emphasis on the war from the American point of view but the horror of the French front is overwhelming along with the fat ineffectual generals. Starting in 1923 Keystone issued these sets in groups of 75 100 200 & 300 cards. The set was in print for 10 years. Originally they came in three double book-form volumes stereo views with series and position number on reverse side the title being "World War Through the Stereoscope 1st through 4th edition. They were also originally issued with a descriptive pamphlet & stereo viewer. This set is one of the first four editions. This set has the three original slipcases containing the stereo views the stereoscope and the accompanying book by Hanson "The World War Through the Stereoscope - A Visualized Vitalized History of the Greatest Conflict of All the Ages" 2nd edition 1923 small 8vo 442pp 3 maps 2 folding and 8pp ads. The book includes a chronology topical index statistics how to use the stereoscope etc. The boxes & book spines are bound in brown or black leather with gilt titles somewhat rubbed. The silver gelatin print images are extremely bright and compelling. The cards are slightly bowed as issued. Each card is numbered in the center lower margin below the images with descriptive text on the back the image number and the series. "Through sickly shrapnel-sown meadows reaped by death alone" ~ a very immediate depiction of the war conveying both the patriotic technical advances and the immensely sad desolation that is war.

ref. 85055301Amoy n.d. early ca 1900-1910 n.p. A large panoramic photo view 13 x 91 cm. printed on "Agfa Troopex" paper rolled with some fold/cracks otherwise a very good clear image in glossy black & white an actual photograph. R A R E ! . . . AN EARLY PANORAMIC VIEW OF AMOY XIAMEN . . A lovely and early black and white panoramic photograph of Amoy Xiamen island at the mouth of the Jiulong River. It has an excellent natural harbor. Fishing shipbuilding food processing and tanning were the major industries of the period. . Because of its key position across the Taiwan Straits from Taiwan this has always been a strategic island and area. Opposite Xiamen proper across the inner harbor is the island of Gulangxu the former foreign settlement and a fine residential section. Amoy was one of the earliest seats of European commerce in China with Portuguese arriving in the 16th century and the Dutch in the 17th century. Amoy was captured in 1841 by the British in the Opium War Opium Wars 1839-1842 and again in 1856-1860 two wars between China and Western countries. The first was between Great Britain and China. Early in the 19th century and became a treaty port opened to foreign trade by treaty. . "TREATY PORT" is a term usually confined to ports in those countries that formerly strongly objected to foreign trade or attempted altogether to exclude it. Thus it is used especially in reference to China and later in Japan. Amoy was long a Chinese port of emigration mainly to Southeast Asia. . Panoramic views are rare and required the use of a special camera apparatus. This early view shows Amoy when it only had a very few tall buildings and with many small homes and other structures including what appears to be a large chimney probably the early beginnings of the first electrical power plant in that area. A few small sampans are seen anchored otherwise it was an usually quiet day in one of China's most bustling coastal cities ! . CONDITION: Early panoramic photographs of Amoy are RARE and seldom found. Most panoramic views were rolled resulting in the typical folding bends and cracks. This copy is in remarkable good condition based on its age and rarity. . The work is in original rolled condition with the usual bends folds cracks please see photos posted to our website. . The back could be restored thus giving it a more stiff flat body by removing some of the old bends and folds bringing it back to is old solid glory. . Suitable for framing and museum or library display. . . unknown
