Item Details
Description
(RELIGION.) Photograph of the first tabernacle of the Church of God and Saints of Christ. Silver print, 8 x 6 inches, with inked P-J Press Bureau stamp, later 1928 inked stamp, and manuscript notations on verso; minimal wear. Philadelphia, circa 1900

The Church of God and Saints of Christ was founded by William Saunders Crowdy in Philadelphia in 1899, and moved to Washington, DC in 1903. They were one of the first Black Israelite congregations in the country, professing a direct link to Judaism as well as a devotion to the teachings of Christ. The church remains active with 50 tabernacles today. This photograph depicts the first tabernacle in its very early days at 1416½ Quaker City Hall in Philadelphia. The sign depicts an all-seeing eye and the "Stone of Truth."
