Joshua W. and John S. Moulton were brothers who operated a photography firm out of Salem, Mass. They made a number of stereoviews of New York City landmarks including Central Park. While they were fairly prolific, we can trace no other copies of this scarce, charming compendium of views of Brooklyn’s Prospect Park.
Captions include:
Bridge F; Oak Arbor; Fountain; Miniature Lake; The Lawn; Concert Square; South Lake; Vine Clad Ardor; Boat Landing and Lake; Landscape View; Bridge and Lake; and The Dairy
