A collection of 12 stereoviews of likely the same family, including images of the photographer, ca. early 20th century. All on similar dark brown/gray mounts. There are no backmarks or inscriptions, so it is unsure who the people in these photographs are. Images of photographers are rare in itself, but to also have several images of the same family members makes this lot an extraordinary addition to any collector. 

The views included in this lot are: 

1. A woman in a nightgown grabs a lit lightbulb in a living room or parlor. There are also dozens of photographs on the walls behind her, further alluding to the fact that a photographer lives in the family. 

2. Three people sit at a table. The woman to the left holds a stereoviewer and the table in front of her holds a large stack of stereoviews. The woman to right then strums the guitar. 

3. Two women stand outside, both wearing large hats. The woman to the right appears to be holding a box camera. 

4. The same woman from the right in the previous stereoview is captured standing outside and holding the same box camera again. 

5. A man in a bowler hat stands adjusting a camera on a tripod in front of a house. 

6. The woman from the third stereoview that was standing on the left stands in the same spot as the man in the previous photograph. She is holding the same satchel as the third image. 

7. A group of seven (7) people stand on a rocky shore, one holding a dog close to him. The man from the fifth image is seen with the same camera on a tripod. 

8. The woman from the sixth image and the man from the fifth stand side by side. Perhaps they are married. 

9. Another view of the same group on the rocky shore. 

10. Two women on a rocky shore look into the viewfinder of the box camera that is on the lap of the woman to the left. 

11. Another image of the same woman and man from the eighth image in different outfits. 

12. Another angle of the same woman in the same spot as the sixth image.
