A nice group of six stereoscopic views of the area surrounding Savannah, Georgia in the late 19th century, produced by two local photographers. Three of the views depict historic Bonaventure Cemetery outside of Savannah, the other three are agricultural scenes. Five of the cards were produced by D.J. Ryan, who advertises a "large stock of Views of Negro Groups, Cotton Fields, etc." in his "Southern Stereoscopic Views" series. Each of the five is titled in manuscript on the verso. Ryan arrived in Savannah in 1867, and is known for photographing Robert E. Lee on his farewell tour of the south. The sixth stereoview is from J.N. Wilson, also of Savannah. Wilson was a New Yorker who moved to Georgia just weeks after the Civil War, and lived the rest of his life there as a photographer and stereoscope card producer. The first five below are by D.J. Ryan, the sixth by J.N. Wilson. The versos contain primarily printed information, with manuscript additions given within quotation marks. The views are: 1) No. "2: Orange." Depicts a stand of orange trees. 2) No. "7: Cotton." Depicts two African-American workers in a field of tall cotton. 3) No. "113": Bonaventure. Depicts two grave markers with trees behind them. Also contains a brief description of Bonaventure on verso, which mentions that General Duncan Clinch is buried there. Clinch was a popular general in the wars of 1812 and the first two Seminole Wars, and represented Georgia in the U.S. House of Representatives. 4) No. "123": Bonaventure. Depicts a man looking down a long colonnade of tall oaks; a mausoleum can be seen on the right. The printed description of the cemetery is identical to that on the preceding card. 5) No. "196: Rice Field & Dyke." Depicts an inundated rice field and dyke. 6) No. "10": Bonaventure. Depicts a series of tall oak trees. The printed text on the verso contains the photographer's address and a brief synopsis of the history of the cemetery. Light foxing and staining to some images, edges of cards a bit worn. Very good.
