Description

Stereoscopic photograph consisting of two separate photographs mounted on dark brown card. The Sheldonian Theatre, Old Ashmolean Building, and (right) part of Exeter College, with Broad Street in the foreground and several figures. Discoloured at edges, stains on left-hand photograph. Presumably made by an amateur, and probably not truly stereoscopic (the two images appear to be identical).
