Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, anchors this 1910 view, though the title was supplied later by the National Photo Company and has not been independently verified, so the scene itself is best read from the image. The town is forever tied to the three-day battle of July 1863, which marked a turning point in the Civil War, and by 1910 the surrounding fields had been set aside as a national military park that drew steady streams of visitors. The National Photo Company produced views like this one for the travel and postcard trade, and its glass negatives often show streaks and clouding from the natural decline of their original coatings.
