Summary
North Carolina stereoscopic card.
Robert Dennis's stereographs collection includes more than 72,000 stereoscopic views organized primarily by geography. The collection bears the name of the native New Yorker who assembled it over a period of more than six decades, Robert N. Dennis (1900-1983).
Stereographs consist of two nearly identical photographs or photomechanical prints, paired to produce the illusion of a single three-dimensional image, usually when viewed through a stereoscope. Stereographs were produced from the 1850s to the 1940s, with the bulk between 1870 and 1920.
Rufus Morgan born in North Carolina in 1905, Morgan began his career as a photographer in the 1930s, working for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and documenting rural life in the South. He later worked for Life magazine, covering the civil rights movement and other important events of the time. Morgan's photographs often focused on the daily lives of African Americans, capturing their struggles and triumphs at a time of great social change. He died in 1990, leaving a legacy of powerful images that continue to inspire and inform today.
