E Anthony advertisement from the 28 March 1860
Coshocton Ohio newspaper.
American and Foreign
Stereoscopic Emporium
E. Anthony, 308 Broadway, N.Y.
After May 1st 1860, at 501 Broadway, two doors from the
St Nicholas Hotel.
The Stereoscope is the most instructive, interesting,
amusing and exciting of modern inventions.
None are too young, none too old, none too intelligent,
none too uneducated, to acknowledge its worth and beauty.
No home is complete without it, and it must and will
penetrate everywhere.
It presents to your view every part of the world in all
the relief, boldness, perspective and sharpness of detail,
as if you were on the spot.
Photographers are everywhere exploring. Europe, Asia,
Africa, America, in search of the grand and the beautiful, and
the results of their skill are constantly enriching our
stock.
We have an immense variety of paper views of scenes in
Paris, London, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, France,
Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Spain, The Rhine, Versailles,
St. Cloud, Fontainebleau, Tuilleries, Italy, Turkey, Egypt,
Athens, the Holy Land, China, India, Crystal Palace, also
Groups: historical, amusing, marriage scenes, breakfast
scenes, picnics, statuary, &c. An excellent assortment of
illuminated interiors of palaces, churches, and cathedrals of
France, Italy, &c. The effect of these illuminated views
is most remarkable.
Every gentleman of wealth and refined taste should have
in his drawing room some of our exquisite views on glass,
with a revolving stereoscope, showing 12, 25, 50 or 100
scenes. Nothing can be more fascinating, and one can offer no
greater treat to a friend fond of the picturesque and the
beautiful.
Anthony's Instantaneous stereoscope views are the latest
Photographic wonder. They are taken in the fortieth part of a
second, and everything, no matter how rapidly it may be
moving, is depicted as sharply and distinctly as if it had
been perfectly at rest. This gives an additional value, for
to the beauties of inanimate nature it adds the charm of
life and motion. The process is a discovery of our own, and
being unknown in Europe, we receive from London and Paris
large orders for Anthony's Instantaneous Views of American
life and scenery.
Among other things we have just published stereoscopic
illustrations of the scene of the Fulton street prayer
meeting, in which many hearts feel an interest. The
particulars of this will be found in our catalogue.
Our catalogue of subjects and prices will be forwarded to
any address on receipt of a stamp.
Parties at a distance sending us $3, $5, $10, $15, $20 or
$25, can have a good instrument and such pictures as they may
request, sent by Express.
Views alone, without instrument, can be sent by mail.
Parties who wish to be advised of everything really
valuable in the line as it comes out, may send us their
names and place on record, and we will keep them posted
at our own expense.
Men of leisure will find Photography a most fascinating
and delightful amusement. We are prepared to fit out
amateurs with everything necessary for their success, together
with instructions "How to take Stereoscopic Pictures."
E. ANTHONY,
Importer and Manufacturer of Photographic Materials,
Stereoscopes and Stereoscopic Views.
