OK. This is pretty cool. No, scratch that. WAY cool!
ReplyDeleteBeehive house still looks great today, the surrounding city, so different. Fun to see this photo.
ReplyDeleteSo which is the Beehive House, the one with all the peaked eaves above the windows?
ReplyDeleteOh, I college stereoscope cards. This is soooo cool! Is there any way you could put this one up for a prize? :-)
ReplyDeletePardon me for asking, but what exactly are stereoscope cards?

I'll have a giveaway with this photo on Friday.
Someone remind me.
I loved my tour of the Beehive house. The card reminds me of my grandmother's stereoscope viewer. I haven't seen it since I was really little.
