The Custer Monument Portrayed On a Stereographic Card
In the years following the battle at the Little Bighorn most of the officers were disinterred from battlefield graves and were buried in the east. The graves of enlisted men were moved to the top of a hill, and a monument was erected on the site.
This stereograph, a pair of photographs which would appear three-dimensional when viewed with a popular parlor device of the late 1800s, shows the Custer monument.
The Little Bighorn Battlefield Site is now a national monument, and is a popular destination for tourists in the summer months. And the latest portrayal of the Little Bighorn is never more than a few minutes old: the National Battlefield Site has webcams.
