Its title places this stereograph in Yosemite Valley, Mariposa County, California, and the 1860 date fits the years when paired views of the valley's granite walls were reaching eastern parlors. The catalog's subject tags, however, point to war damage and houses in Charleston, South Carolina, during the Civil War, so the title and subjects disagree and one of them may be wrong. The card belongs to a series of California, Oregon and Pacific coast views and carries original negative number 1124.
