This original 1876 stereoview card was produced for the International Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, created on lightweight card stock typical of the exhibition’s official photography. The stereoview features a finely detailed marble statue of a young, shivering girl wrapped in a cloak, titled “Cold” (No. 1249). The dual photographic views display excellent clarity and highlight the sculpture’s expressive facial features and realistic drapery. The card shows the classic brown-toned albumen photographic process used during this era and includes printed exhibition information along the side borders and on the reverse. This is a historically significant stereoview from the first official World’s Fair held in the United States. Condition:Light edge wear, mild discoloration, and small surface marks consistent with age. Card is thinner than typical commercial stereoviews, likely due to exhibition-era production. Images remain clear and well-preserved.Free Ground Shipping in the US. Priority shipping available at buyer's expense. Feel free to message with any questions. Thanks for checking it out!
