California: J.J. Reilly, [ca. 1876-1886]. Albumen print stereoview, 3.25" x 6" on orange mount, title under images, pink verso. A rare and handsome stereoview photograph of a three-story Italianate-style Chinese restaurant on the corner of San Francisco's Jackson Street.
Noted photographer J. J. Reilly was a young Scottish immigrant when he arrived in California in 1856. After volunteering in the Union Army, he became a U.S. citizen in 1866. Well-known for his Yosemite and other California scenic stereoviews, Reilly frequently moved his business but nevertheless retained the series-title "Views of American Scenery" between 1871 and 1886. According to Paul Hickman's 1985 article in Stereo World, "From 1876 to 1886 all of Reilly's stereographs were trimmed in a new Bergner cutter. The resulting prints were larger and had an Adamsesque arch of squatter proportions"-as does this view of the Chinese Restaurant.
CONDITION: Very good, strong tonality, slight wear at extremities of mount.
