For your consideration is a nice stereoview titled "Cog Engine, Mt. Washington". This is a great early image of the engine stopped on the track with two workers on board. Note several other people riding behind the engine. This image appears on page 44 of Glen Kidder's *Railway to the Moon*. Kidder states that the image was taken "during the early period of construction" and that the railway "had not been extended too far as #1 lacks a tender compartment". Kidder dates the view "Probably 1866 or1867" The view was photographed and published by Kilburn Brothers, Littleton, N.H. (#186). There is overall light soiling. Please view the enlargeable scans carefully and contact me with any questions. Over the coming months we will be thinning out our collection focused on the mountains of the Northeast. This collection includes the White Mountains (New Hampshire), Green Mountains (Vermont), Adirondacks (New York), Mt. Katahdin, Mt. Monadnock, and other miscellaneous mountains in the region. Also items concerning the Appalachian Trail. We will be listing hundreds of White Mountain stereoviews depicting towns, hotels, Mount Washington, the Cog railway, etc.. If you are looking for a particular view by Kilburn, Soule, Weller, Franklin White, or any of the period photographers feel free to inquire whether we have one to offer. We will also be listing many books (including guides and early histories), maps, photos, Appalachian Mountain Club items, etc.. Please check our auctions regularly and if you are seeking a particular item for your collection contact us and we will let you know if we will be selling one.
