Reservoirs, Undated

This unique collection of almost 325 prints in stereoscopic views, centers mainly on photographs taken in the Rochester, New York area between 1865 and 1900. Supplementing this collection are stereographs from other regions of New York State and other states. Very few items are unidentified. The majority of the items were taken by local photographers, but a few are from other New York State and non-local creators. Some items are heavily annotated on the back, but most are not.

The vast majority (approximately 150 items with a handful of duplications) deal with Rochester scenes. There are 18 cards of other states. About 20 cards are completely unidentified. There are 154 items which show scenes from other New York State locations.
