Biographical Note

Stereoscopic images first became popular following The Great Exhibition in 1851 where David Brewster introduced a stereoscope that used daguerreotypes for the dual images. Oliver Wendell Holmes’ invention of a simplified stereoscope in the 1850s and the development of photographic technology made stereoscopes more affordable and available to everyone.

Gerald W. Williams worked for the U.S. Forest Service from 1979 until his retirement in 2005. From 1979 to 1993, he was a sociologist with the Umpqua and Willamette National Forests in Oregon; in 1993-1998, he served as the regional sociologist for the Pacific Northwest Regional Office in Portland; and from 1998 until his retirement in 2005 he was the national historian for the U.S. Forest Service in Washington, D.C.  He collected the stereoscopic photographs as part of his interest in photography and a deep interest in natural history, particularly in the Western United States.  This collection provides a rich representational sample of some of the better known stereoscopic photographers and studios in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Content Description

The Gerald W. Williams Stereoscopic Photograph Collection consists of 504 b/w and 5 color lithograph stereoscopic images.  All are mounted. Many of the photographs are undated. They were acquired and compiled by Williams in the course of his work as a Forest Service sociologist and historian and due to his avocational interest in the history of forestry and the history of the United States, especially that of the Pacific Northwest region.

Roughly fifty percent of the photographs feature Oregon locations, with Washington State and California also predominant; other western states such as Alaska, Colorado, Montana, and Utah are also represented.   The photographs depict natural landmarks and scenic landscapes, such as Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson in Oregon, and Mt. Rainier or Mt. Tacoma in Washington State, and many include people climbing these prominent peaks.  National park scenes show Crater Lake, Mt. Rainer, Glacier, and Yellowstone. Scenic river basin views include those along the Columbia, Rogue, Santiam, Umpqua and Willamette Rivers in Oregon.  East Coast locations include the Empire State Building, Plymouth Rock, and Independence Hall and several photographs from Washington, D.C..  Seven of the photographs present scenes from the Spanish-American War and World War I.

Scenic landscapes and landmarks from other countries such as the Frasier River and Glacier National Park in Canada, the Forbidden City in China, the pyramids in Egypt, the Winter Palace in Russia, and one photograph from Japan are included in the collection.

The photographers or photographic studios for many of these images are not identified, except for some photographs which have the photographer’s last name, or photo studio, printed on the border of the mounting.  Some of the photographers and studios are, Darius Kinsey, Keystone View Company, Underwood & Underwood, Watkin’s Pacific Coast. Companies such as Keystone produced the stereoscopes in topical series, such as “Oregon Scenery”, or “Pacific Coast Views”; series names were also printed on the mounted photographs.
