Description

 The stereograph photos are in excellent condition except 2 of the photos of the 60 are lifting from their backing.  Each card has a lengthy description of the scenes written in six languages including english, german, russian, spanish, french, and another language I cannot identify.  All the photos are pre-WW I & are quite beautiful.  They are all European scenes & some photos are from the "holy land" as well as russia.  The photocards are enclosed in a box labeled "stereographs" on the spine.
