Recently found in a lot of early stereoviews.

This is the second of two identical views from the same estate.

A scarce early 1881 view of President Garfield Inauguration Parade on Pennsylvania Avenue and 15th St.

Stereoview published by J.F. Jarvis of 135 Penn Ave.

This temporary wooden arch was built for reviewing the parade at 15th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. (Library of Congress)

I\'ve read that there were actually 38 temporary arches constructed for this inaugural parade- one for each state.

If you google \"temporary arch garfield inaugural parade\", you can see this information.

Card measures 3 3/8\" x 6 7/8\".

Used estate condition: sturdy w/ toning, foxing, some light soiling and staining, and is bowed.

Really an interesting and uncommon view with considerable detail.

If I\'ve overcharged for shipping, I will refund the difference.

No out of US sale.
