Scope and Contents

The photograph of Victorian houses is not explicitly signed or otherwise noted as a Cooper, but was found with the others in 2022 and so was left in place.

5 panoramic photographs of views from Brooklyn across the East River to lower Manhattan, circa 1911, inclusive

Folder: FF-1 (Material Type: Graphic Materials)

Scope and Contents

None of the photos explicitly indicate they are by Cooper, but one can be found attributed to him on the Library of Congress site: [New York from Brooklyn Heights, panoramic view] at https://www.loc.gov/resource/ds.04403/. The others appear to have been taken from roughly the same spot, but at a slightly different time as different boats are on the river. The items were found together in the stacks in 2022 and were left together here.
