John Fillis Jarvis
John Fillis Jarvis, also known as J. F. Jarvis, (1849, Melksham, England - 1931, Washington, D.C.) was a photographer in Washington D.C. He experimented with stereography and issued a set of stereoscopic images of White House. In the 1880s he collaborated with Elmer and Bert Underwood, who built a company Underwood & Underwood that became a national distributor of stereoviews. Jarvis produced for Underwood brothers multiple stereoscopic images of the United States, Mexico, Algeria, India, and Palestine. Reference: Heil, Douglas.
