1896W2084London: Fortescue Mann 1896. There is some debate over whether the London views by Fortescue Mann were taken by John Fortescue Mann 1848-1897 or by his son Reginald Fortescue Mann 1881-1916. David Simkin Sussex Photo History attributes them to the father while Douglas Heil The Art of Stereography attributes them to the son. Both acknowledge that the latter would have been quite a prodigy to have created these fine images at the age of 15 in 1896. From the collection of Robert N. Dennis. Please note that my scanner does not do well with glass stereoviews. All of the glass views I have listed for this fair have superb images especially when observed through a stereoscope. First Edition. Glass. Collectible-Very Good. Illus. by Fortescue Mann. 3 1/4" by 6 3/4". Photo. Fortescue Mann
