Old First Presbyterian Church, Newark, New Jersey, 1917.
The Robert L. Bracklow Photograph Collection spans the period from 1882-1918 and contains photonegatives, copy prints, and original photographic prints of Bracklow's photographs of New York City, its immediate environs, and towns throughout New England. Bracklow's photographs often show elements of Manhattan in flux: old houses, new skyscrapers, and buildings in different stages of construction. The handmade albums showcase Coney Island, Fort Washington, the 1899 Dewey celebration, naval parades along the Hudson, and newsboys hawking Spanish-American War bulletins. Also documented are excursions with friends to Harper's Ferry, New England, Long Island, New Jersey, and Staten Island. Scenes with Camera Club members on some trips reflect the convivial atmosphere of photographic outings. Bracklow's original prints of New York City and of vacations he took in New England can be found in the photograph albums and loose prints given to the New-York Historical Society by Ruth Trappan. ; Robert Louis Bracklow (1849-1919) was an amateur photographer and stationer. He was an active member of the Society of Amateur Photographers of New York (later the Camera Club), where he exhibited photographs with fellow amateur Richard H. Lawrence and with Alfred Stieglitz.
