Two 19th Century Stereoviews of Eastport, Maine, in Winter

Two stereoviews of winter scenes in Eastport, Maine.  

Reprinted, with permission, from the Heirlooms Reunited blog.

We're accustomed to photographs of seagulls perched on rooftops, but the stereoview above takes the cake!

Both of the views are from the Loring Rooms' series "Views of Eastport and Vicinity".

The reverse of the stereoview below notes that it was taken in the late 1860s outside Tuttle's Hotel in Eastport.
