General View in the Camp
| Quite possibly this is the "General view in the camp" listed in the "Centennial Views of the City of Madison, July 4th, 1876. Views of Chicago Light Guard" section of Dahl's 1877 "Catalogue of Stereoscopic Views." The men are encamped at Camp Randall or on the shores of Lake Monona. The group of men are posing between two rows of tents, some of which have American Flags. A young man with a drum leans against a tree in the foreground. |
