The images are mounted uniformly on larger card and are all captioned on the card with a preliminary title for the print in three different penciled handwriting.

The NY images include "Hudson Highlands Bull Hill; View from West Point on the Hudson N. Yk.; Crow's Nest from Bull Hill West Point; Village of Sing Sing on the Hudson; Chapel of our Lady of Coldspring; View near Anthonys Nose Hudson; Entrance to Hudson Highlands near Newburgh; The Narrows Lake George; Little Falls on the Mohawk; Village of Cattskill sic; Rail Road Scene Little Falls; The Outlet of Niagara River; Brock's Monument; New York from Weehawken; Narrows from Fort Hamilton N.Y.; Park & City Hall New York; Sabbath Day Point Lake George; The Rapids above the Falls of Niagara. <br /> <br /> The remaining images are of New England Pennsylvania and the mid-Atlantic States.
