Few places drew more stereoscopic views than Yosemite Valley, and this card stands out for its subject: a camp set among the valley's trees rather than the granite cliffs that usually filled such cards. The card carries a copyright line for Edw. Clarke and the American Stereoscopic Company, a firm known for mass-producing paired views for home viewers. Its caption tracings also mention camping and cowboys, but the record flags its data as unverified and taken from an old caption card, so the exact people and setting should be read with some caution. Seen through a stereoscope, the two images would have given the camp a sense of depth that a flat print cannot.
