Stereoscopic Photograph: Moses Hochstein's Secondhand Store, Saint Paul, Minnesota

Stereoscopic photograph depicting Moses Hochstein's secondhand store in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The image, part of the 'Genre and Comic' series by J.W. Ingersoll, shows crude signage with a backward 'S' letter, interpreted as an antisemitic joke. The photograph is sepia-toned. One sign reads "Gentiles Welcome". The image was also issued in color by another vendor. Date is undated, but estimated to be circa 1890.
