Thank you for your comment regarding the Stereo-Travel lantern slide. I will send you more information about our collection by mail. We do not have any specific information on Lynn C. Skeels or the Stereo Travel Company in our archives.

These lantern slides, published by the Stereo-Travel Company were photographed by Lynn C. Skeels (1871-1948) in July 1906. He copyrighted them on March 12, 1908. The images are all halves of stereographs. "Great Nile Dam, at first cataract, Egypt" was issued as #100 in the Stereo-Travel set. Lynn C. Skeels was was President and Chief Photographer for Stereo-Travel. I am currently writing a book on Skeels' life and photographic career and would like to correspond with persons of interest about his work and career.
