Catalog
The
Scovill & Adams Co., New York, NY
Undated - c.1897
The cover on this catalog is missing - a cover that probably contains its date. However, a list of books in the Scovill Photographic Series is provided on pages 80-85 in which the last entry is No. 56 Photographic Amusements. This book is copyrighted 1896, so this catalog would appear to be c.1897.
It does not contain any view cameras (whether field or studio) - only leather-covered cameras, so it is a sub-catalog of their main catalog.
It also has an anachronistic and racist caricature on page 71, which I almost erased as being unsuitable to be here. I did not erase it, the thought being that we need to remember the cruelty of which we were capable in the past in order to resist such actions in the future.
