A stereoscope card by Carleton Watkins featuring two near-identical images, taken 1867. Watkins was an influential landscape photographer known for his documentation of California and the Pacific Coast. The photographs depict the historic Middle Block House (Fort Rains) on the Columbia River, which was built in 1855 to protect white settlers in the area until its destruction in 1876. The card has text reading "Watkins' Pacific Coast", along with details about the photos. [ Oregon
