[sell-3d] WTB: Stereoviews of Boston Coliseum & Gilmore's Band

[Heliconman@xxxxxxx]

From: Heliconman@xxxxxxx

  I'm researching Patrick S. Gilmore (1829-1892), author of "When Johnny 
Comes Marching Home" and founder of the 2 peace jubilees held in Boston in 
1869 & 1872, of which there were a number of stereoviews taken. A coliseum 
was built for each event, but both being built mainly of wood, did not last 
more than a year. Stereoviews seem to mainly focus on the coliseums' interior 
& exteriors, but I've seen others of Gilmore's Bands, either from Boston or 
New York. The Famous 22nd Regiment Band of N.Y. was under Gilmore's 
leadership. Perhaps there are also stereoviews of Gilmore's Garden in N.Y.C, 
formerly known as (P.T.) Barnum's Hippodrome and later known as Madison 
Square Garden.  Perhaps there are also stereoviews of the Times Square New 
Year's Eve celebrations between 1873 & 1891 or pictures of his band playing 
at Coney island in the same time period. Please let me know about any and all 
Gilmore related pictures, coins or medals, cylinder recordings or other 
memorabilia including music stands from the jubilees or brass horns bearing 
the Gilmore name!!!
Thanks VERY much!
