The Kilburn Brothers

A partnership between Benjamin West Kilburn and his brother Edward Kilburn of Littleton, New Hampshire (USA). One of the most significant of the American photographers and publishers of stereo cards in the nineteenth century. In 1879 they patented the “warped” or “curved” stereocard which enhanced the 3D effect. In 1908 James M, Davis obtained the Kilburn negatives and later resold them to Keystone. / quoted from Luminous-lint
