Lot of 10 stereoviews, 9 of which appear to be from the same series, although no photographer/publisher is provided. "Florida, the Land of Flowers and Tropical Scenery." The cards (4" x 7") have paper labels attached to the reverse that identify each location: Old Spanish Stair-way in Fort Marion; City Gates; Doorway of the Fort; Interior View of the Old Spanish Fort; The Entrance to the Old Spanish Fort; Water Battery and Hot Shot Furnace of the Old Spanish Fort; Sea Wall; Treasury Street; and Old Fort San Marco. Last card is smaller and is a shot of the stairway at Fort Marion (reverse has ad for a magazine, The Naturalist). Originally known as Castillo de San Marcos and built in 1572, Ft. Marion was renamed in 1821 when it became a US military base after Spain signed the AdamsñOnÌs Treaty which ceded Florida to the United States. Light to medium contrast. Please inspect. Certainly pre-1900, perhaps 1870s or 1880s. (Prag Collection) State: Florida City: St. Augustine Date:
