Description

A stereographic photograph, "Granite Gate, Mt. Lowe Railroad, Mt. Lowe, California, U. S. A.," Strohmeyer and Wyman, published by Underwood and Underwood, 1898. The image is taken from the middle of the track looking back at an open car filled with guests and the conductor standing at the left holding the wheel. The granite rocks on either side of the car form the "gate" referred to in the title, which is stamped in several languages on the reverse. With some staining, soiling, fading and edge rubbing, the overall condition is good.
