Only on ARLIS-L would I see a request about Quaggas and then see their picture!--and a company named Luminous Lint--in the same email.  I love it!!

I forwarded the question to Alan Griffiths of Luminous Lint, he says:



The only quagga I know is this one. Each credited to a different photographer but the same image.

I don't have one taken by E. Linde & Co.

 

Best,

Alan

Hello All,

 

Is anyone aware of an archive for E. Linde & Co. of Berlin? They produced stereographs in the 19th century. Specifically, I have a professor who's trying to find an image of a yard in South Africa with a quagga in it (an extinct type of zebra). I've exhausted my ideas for finding it.

 

Any help will be appreciated!
