Johns Hopkins - Old Campus in Downtown, Baltimore

I recently acquired this multi-view card of buildings from the original downtown Baltimore campus of Johns Hopkins University. From left to right: McCoy & Levering Hall, Treasurer's Office, Biological Laboratory, and McCoy Hall (bottom left). Sent from an unknown student to Dr. Albert Johannsen in Needleton, Colorado. Dr. Johannsen was a noted microscopical petographer of the era.
