Three stereoscope cards by Carleton Watkins, c. 1870. Each card features a pair of near-identical images. Watkins was an influential landscape photographer known for his documentation of California and the Pacific Coast. The photos show various views of San Gabriel; one card depicts the mission bells, one card shows the mission building at a distance, and the third card depicts a local residential house with a family. The cards have text reading "Watkins' New Series", along with Watkins' San Francisco address. [ San Gabriel California
