Tennessee Stereos

Tennessee

The following 9 Stereoviews (TN1 through TN9) are from a group of views of Memphis, Tennessee and Vicinity and are by the photographic firm of Bingham & Hilliard. They do not have imprints but the manuscript on the back of TN1 reads in part "Gallery in the distance, you can see sign on side of building." The sign is for Bingham & Hilliard. While 9 views from this group are listed in this section, others are listed under Ships (SH123-SH127, SH129-SH133), and 2 views are listed under Fairs & Expositions (Expo25 & 26). Some of those views are by Bingham & Craver. This is a rare group of views of Memphis by an uncommon maker.
