Outdoor stereoview of Henry Harper. N.p., [circa. 1860s]. 1 page, 7 x 3 1/2 in.
This stereoview, most likely from the 1860s, shows a Black man in threadbare clothes standing outside. A streetcar speeds by behind him. Given the estimated time frame and the state of the photographed man, it is probable he was a self-emancipated slave or so-called 'contraband.'
