Cirkut.Org

An Online Museum of Panoramic Photography

Welcome. I'm Mark Crabtree and I've started this web site as a meeting place for all those interested in Cirkut and panoramic photography. We're just starting to get things together here. I've posted some of the photos for our first exhibition project, and more will be coming soon. I'll also be posting Cirkut related information on a regular basis..

I hope this site will be a valuable resource for information about Cirkut and other historic panoramic photography. The emphasis will be on historic photographers and images, but we'll be featuring some modern work too. I would also like to get some of the experts to provide in-depth information about the Cirkut and other panoramic cameras.

Your help is needed. We welcome information, articles, pictures and maybe even advice. We are currently developing an exhibition on The Haines Photo Company. Any information or images related to William Haines or the Haines Photo Company would be greatly appreciated. Contact me at: crabtree@cirkut.org

Online Exhibitions

• Now Open-Historic panoramics from the coalfields of southern West Virginia by "Red" Ribble. More photos, plus related materials, coming soon.
• In the works-William Amos Haines; The Haines Photo Company of Conneaut, Ohio and Glendale, California. Your help with information and images is needed. Contact me at: crabtree@cirkut.org

Cirkut Camera

• Cirkut Camera catalogs and brochures in PDF form.
• Sources of film for Cirkut Cameras.
• I've posted basic overview of the Cirkut Camera, but plan to build an in-depth history over time.

More

• Don't miss Taking The Long View; Panoramic Photographs 1851-1991. This Library of Congress site has approximately four thousand images and is surely the greatest resource of panoramic photographs in the world. You may search by keyword, but there is also a handy Creator Index (plus many other features). We'll be telling you a lot more about this collection in the near future.
