EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back in time to the very birthplace of American history. Standing on Battle Green in Lexington, Massachusetts, we are transported to that fateful day in April 1775 when the first shots of the American Revolutionary War were fired. The image captures a solemn memorial stone that stands proudly on this historic ground. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom and independence during this pivotal period in our nation's past. Surrounded by picturesque buildings and houses that have witnessed centuries of change and progress, this scene exudes an air of reverence and significance. The gravestones scattered throughout the burial ground silently pay tribute to those who laid down their lives for a cause greater than themselves. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph through our stereoscope lens, we can almost feel ourselves stepping into history. This is not just a tourist attraction or another travel destination; it is hallowed ground where rebellion sparked revolution. With its timeless charm and powerful symbolism, this image from "Tour of the World" captures both the beauty and gravity of America's fight for liberty. It reminds us how far we've come as a country while honoring those who paved the way for our freedoms today.
