Carlton Harlow Graves (1867-1943) was an American photographer and publisher of stereocards. His father, Jesse Albert Graves, was also a photographer. Jesse specialized in scenic views of western Pennsylvania and taught Carlton his craft. Around 1880, Carlton began his career as a professional photographer and founded the Universal Photo Art Company in 1895. While Carlton had founded several companies that distributed prints, the Universal Photo Art Co. was the most successful and stayed in business until 1910. Carlton's catalog eventually came to encompass around 1600 photographs.. Photographic Image. Book Condition: Collectible-Good. Binding: No Binding
