Malta
The
next views are an exceptionally rare - probably unique - group of early
views of Malta. I have researched these and am pretty sure they are the
earliest stereoviews of Malta that exist. I have not been able to find
any views of Malta that are this early. They are exceptional
for a number of reasons: they are well-photographed, they are extremely
well processed and exhibit no fading or other deterioration, and they are
in superb condition.

I
can fairly safely date these to 1858 or 1859. One is of the British Man-o-War
The Marlborough, which visited Malta in both those years. These
nearly all have the location written on the back in Victorian hand and are
numbered. They are not cheap - especially the best views - but they are
exceptional. I have graded these as 9 but most are as-new.
