From NH Historical Marker (at the intersection of Cottage Street and Kilburn Street in Littleton, NH): “Kilburn Brothers Stereoscopic View Factory | Here, from 1867 to 1909, the world famous Kilburn brothers, Benjamin and Edward, produced and distributed thousands of stereoscopic views. Their collection, largest in the world and collector’s items today, provided popular parlor entertainment for generations.”
