Photo album from an unknown branch of the McCall family of Philadelphia. Seventeen views are from a trip to Switzerland; some of these are identified, including Chillon, Interlaken, and Jungfrau. One photo shows a group of men and women in fashionable dress traversing a glacier. In another, children pose around the statue of Wilhelm Tell in Altorf. Mountain scenery and waterfalls are shown in most of the Swiss photos. The album includes one photo of a thatched building under palm trees, with no location given. With the exception of a photo of people on a boat, the rest of the album contains photos of members of the McCall family, their country homes, and their pets, but none are identified. One photo depicts a woman and two children sitting on a beach next to a pier or boardwalk. In another, a girl and a woman gaze out the back opening of a buggy. A cyanotype shows a small child dressed as a fairy. Two photos show home libraries or offices. A cat with a bow around its neck appears in one photo, and dogs in others. A newspaper article about Egyptian art is laid into the album.
