Luray Caverns, in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, is the subject of this stereograph card, which pairs two nearly identical views so that the cave's formations appear in three dimensions when seen through a stereoscope. The card's title also names the Shenandoah Valley Railroad, a reminder that the caverns drew visitors by rail in the decades after the Civil War, when the valley's rail links made tourism there practical. Stereograph cards like this one were sold widely in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and scenes of natural wonders such as caves were among the most popular subjects.
