These
pages contain probably the widest range of views by subject, age and price
of any on the site. There are many very early (1850s) views, but also included
are everything from curved mounts and amateur views to salt prints and
fine 1850s studio compositions. There are TWO pages so please don't miss
the link at the bottom of this page. Please note: Some views have a slight
orange tinge which was caused by my new scanner before I got the hang of
it. Difference in size is also due to scanner settings. The English Classic
views in color are in the color section. Please click here
for those, although there are a few in these pages.

group are French 1870s theatricals by B. et D.. Often found in tissue format,
these have stunning tinting. Some have light damp staining on the back

it into account when grading.
Titles of scenes should be clear.

The next
section comprises views by Peter Elfelt of Copenhagen. He was probably
the most prolific Danish stereographer and was court photographer to the
Danish royal family. His wide range of views extend from semi-nudes (presumably
not the Royal Family) to views of Africa and Asia. He was a very competent
photographer and his views are well worth collecting.
These views seem to be all of Anna Larsen the Danish actress who didn't turn up - the catalyst that ended up with the film 'The Danish Girl'.

scratch on the right image.
