In 1908 a comet appeared in the skies, discovered by Professor Morehouse who, using a spectrometer, discovered that there was cyanogen gas in the comet's tail. This led to the belief that we would all be killed by cyanide gas when Halley's Comet arrived in 1910 and the Earth passed through its tail. In 1910, this stereocard was sold by Keystone views to take advantage of the interest in Halley's Comet. (SOLD), item #HC123-2
