    According to the book "The Panoramic Photography of Eugene O. Goldbeck", this photo came about by sheer co-incidence. Goldbeck was there at the same time that Einstein and his wife were visiting and he convinced the couple to pose for a photo with the Indians in front of the Hopi House. A copy of this photo was also located inside a display case inside the Hopi House when I visited in 2013, but the date of the photo was misidentified on the label and Goldbeck was not identified as the photographer. I spoke with the manager, who was totally unaware that Goldbeck had taken the photo and of his stature in photographic history.

    I have real admiration for these double images on the single cards that were made by studios for use with stereoscopes, which were the device that folks used for viewing photographic images with a simulated 3-D effects. That simulation of Third Dimensionality, was created by means of applying slight differences in angles, differring lighting gradiants, slight shifts in the perspectives in the photographic images that were reproduced by the thousands in the later years of the 19th C. Spending an evening Hour or so gazing at the simulated 3- D images was an inexpensive alternative to the Nickelodeon and Public exhibits of early motion pictures, that had not yet been dubbed "Miovies".
