Glass Slide of "Swiss Hamlet Near Eternal Snows"

A glass slide showing a 1901 photograph showing a woman and children in front of a Swiss hamlet with snow-covered mountains in the background. On the reverse of the slide is a label with a handwritten note that reads "Swiss hamlet near eternal snows. Switzerland." The location is probably Saas-fee, the main village in the Saas Valley, in the district of Visp in the canton of Valais in Switzerland. On the frame of the slide is printed "Neg. No. 1800, copyrighted 1901 by Underwood & Underwood, New York City."
