EARLY GETTYSBURG ALBUM PHOTO – TOURISTS IN CAR AT DEVIL’S DEN

$45.00 ON HOLD

Quantity Available: 1

Item Code: 2024-6831

This small photograph features a group of tourists, likely circa the 1920’s, posing in a car near Devil’s Den.

Two small children are noted between four adults, three of which appear old enough to possibly be veterans.  The car appears to be a later Ford Model T with extended cab, rumble seat, wooden wheels, and a pennant that says “PENNSYLVANIA”.  The massive boulders of the Den are plainly visible behind.

The photo is in excellent condition with lines of very old adhesive visible on back, likely from its mounting to a paper album at one time.  All edges and corners are sharp, and no damage is noted.  Overall measurements are 3.4” x 4.6”.  A white, handwritten catalogue number and title was transferred over from the original negative and reads “3159 – At Devil’s Den.”  Though the photographer is uncredited, the notation is very similar to those often seen on the photos of William Tipton, one of Gettysburg’s most famous and prolific early photographers.

A wonderful collectible for the Gettysburg enthusiast.   [cm][ph:L]
