Keystone View Company Harvesting Indian River Pineapples in Florida Stereoview #13740 Copyright 1904
$8.50
Super interesting antique stereoview of farm laborers harvesting Indian River Pineapples in Florida. Besides the brief history of pineapples on the reverse the photograph shows a windmill and water tower. I like the little track and cart for moving the pineapples out of the field. Great agricultural historical moment. Numbered 13740, and copyright 1904.
Keystone View Company was founded by B. L. Singley, who had once been a salesman for Underwood & Underwood, and trained with (or was inspired by) Jame Davis of B. W. Kilburn. He started his own company in 1892 in Meadeville, Pennsylvania. By using very aggressive sales techniques, he soon outgrew his competitors, and then absorbed them all. By 1905 Keystone was the largest stereographic company in the world. The company survived until 1963.
Stereoviews were once produced in large quantities, a form of 3D entertainment and a way for people to see exotic or interesting locales far from home using a stereoscopic viewer - like the stereoscope. They are two nearly identical views photographed from a single stereoscope camera with two lens.
CONDITION: Excellent - crisp and clean, lots of detail.
