Lot of 21 regular-sized stereoviews on yellow or orange mounts, with "The Mississippi River" and "New Orleans" printed on mount recto and applied paper labels identifying the scenes on verso.

Includes eight views of the busy NOLA levee lined with steamboats and freight; two saloon views, one of the steamer Commonwealth and one of the Great Republic; two different views of Canal Street; two panoramic views; St. Patrick's Hall and Church; and several different views of Jackson Square. Provenance:Eugene R. Groves Collection of 19th Century Photography Condition: Excellent to Very Good. Some with slight surface soiling.
