Genuine stereo pair97%
The two photographs contain the viewpoint difference needed to produce genuine depth.
- Depth spread
- 7px
- The range of horizontal difference between the two views. More spread generally means more depth; 0–1 px usually indicates a monoview.
- Match
- 84%
- The share of usable picture detail that can be matched between the left and right views. A higher number means a more reliable comparison.
- Vertical
- 3px
- Vertical drift between matched details. Lower is better; 4 px or more can indicate camera movement, scan skew, or poor alignment.
Photographed and published by J. A. Jenney of Flint, Michigan, this stereoview belongs to the “In the Pineries” series. The marked catalogue entry, no. 10, “Grinding & Filing,” identifies the setting as L. B. Curtis & Co.’s camp in Midland County, Michigan. Men in hats, work shirts, waistcoats, and heavy boots attend a large grindstone and a long saw supported on trestles, amid tall trees, board-roofed camp buildings, and patches of snow. Mounted on yellow card, the paired photographs record the tool maintenance that supported lumber-camp work.
