Tinted lithograph, 21.25" x 26.375" plus margins; re-margined at upper edge. A large and handsome bird's eye view of the historic sea-side town of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. This richly detailed view depicts the city and the surrounding area, as seen from an imaginary elevated vantage point in the northwest looking southeast. In the foreground, various vessels are shown plying the waters of the Piscataqua River and North Mill Pond, and the Eastern and Concord Rail Roads skirt the edge of the city. Numerous commercial buildings line the waterfront, including a number of lumber yards and the Boynton Mineral Water and Bottling Works. Other notable commercial buildings depicted include the Frank Jones Brewery, the Eldridge Brewing Company, and the Kearsarge Mills. A key in the title margin identifies twenty-four municipal and commercial buildings and thirteen churches. Bird's eye view publisher Joseph John Stoner (1829-1917), a native of Highspire, Pennsylvania, was apprenticed to a chair-ornamenter in Harrisburg, before migrating to Cincinnati, where he worked as a map and book agent in the 1860s. By 1865 Stoner had resettled in Madison Wisconsin, eventually becoming a sales agent for city view artist Albert Ruger, with whom he formed a partnership, Ruger & Stoner, in 1869. Stoner worked both in partnership with Ruger and independently into the 1890s, publishing at least 314 views with his imprint on them, and likely a good many lacking his imprint as well, making him one of the most prolific town and city view publishers of the 19th century. Bremner & Co. printed a number of other bird's eye views for Stoner, including Bird's Eye View of Dover, Strafford Co., New Hampshire (1877) and Bird's Eye View of Gardiner and Pittston, Kennebec Co., Maine, (1878). An engaging view of this charming New England seaport. REFERENCES: Reps #1238 and pp. 209-212. CONDITION: Good, light toning in margins.

In the best tradition of the nineteenth century American bird's eye views, this lithograph of Louisville, Kentucky shows the great K & I (Kentucky and Indiana) railroad bridge connecting the Indiana shore in the foreground with the teeming metropolis panoramically depicted in the middle and background. The near shore depicts laborers, a mill with boxcars being loaded, cows, horses and fishermen. In the river many steamboats, some pushing log rafts, are plying the waters or lined against the wharf. Four boats are named--the Mary Houston, Glasgow, Cons. Millar, and Morning Star. Exquisite detail shows thirty two churches and twenty public buildings identified by numbers and listed in the bottom margin. Albert Ruger (1828-1899) was sometimes called "professor" because he initiated and educated so many other artists of perspective views. He was prolific according to Reps, who credits him with over 250 bird's eye views of American cities, and he drew this view in the year following a huge 110 sheet view of St. Louis.
