STEREOVIEW 12079       [last updated 01-01-2014]



I have five distinct views of Stereoview 12079.

Differences to the front:
     HCW 1 & 3 is on black card stock with gold lettering while HCW 2, 4 & 5 is on the more common brown card stock
     Text information on left and right sides identical on HCW 1 & 3 but different when compared to HCW 2 & 4
     HCW 5 text information on left side identical to HCW 1 & 3 and right side identical to HCW 2 & 4
     HCW 3 has the number 79 top center indicating it was part of a set
     HCW 2 has the number 29 bottom center while HCW 4 has the number 79 (found in a boxed HC White set of 100)
     HCW 3 has the Dewey Decimal numbers 551.235 at the top left and 917.85 at the top center

Differences to the back:
     HCW 1 & 3 has additional text 'All Perfec-Stereograph subjects may be secured in Lantern Slides and Enlargements.' at bottom center
     HCW 3 has completely different text when compared to HCW 1, 2, 4 & 5

Other remarks:
     I have three stereoviews (26498 [Type 2], 789, & LCCT) similar to this view
     HCW 1 is number 29 from a set of 36 "Perfec" Stereographs (although difficult to see, the number 29 is in parenthesis at the front bottom center)
     This card is also found as number 79 in the set of 100 issued by H.C. White
     See 26498 [Type 2] for the Keystone View Company view that was issued after the company bought out H.C. White's inventory of negatives
     See 789 for another representation of this view but where the ranger's fishing pole is not touching his hat and no cigar
     See LCCT for another representation of this view but where the ranger's fishing pole is touching his hat and no cigar
