Lunar Eclipse July 22, 1888

This was passed on to me as Adj. Prof. of Astronomy at
Marshalltown Community College from Louise Meakins, of
Tama, Iowa. She writes,

"This photo was among my mother's things. She had an
uncle who was a photographer in Kirksville MO. I imagine
he took it. You are welcome to do with it whatever you
wish.

The roughly two by one and a quarter inch-image is
reporoduced here, scanned at 600 dpi:
