Rare view by C.H. Graves #2974 "Coxey's Army Receiving Rations," 1894. Nice view of members of the march on Washington in a crude encampment. In the background is the Commissary Wagon which has painted on the canopy "Commonweal of Christ - Commissary No. __" and can see "Washington" in part. Some of the men hold cups and pans out while the cook slices with a knife. Beside him is a partly cut melon on a crude board. As they marched, local towns people and farmers would give them food. Buff curved mount. Provenance: The Ed Burchard Stereoview Collection Condition: Bright and clear with strong images on a clean mount.
