It was founded by Benneville Lloyd Singley (1864-1938), also known as B. L. Singley, an American photographer. Singley was formerly a salesman who had worked for Underwood & Underwood, another major stereoview company. Keystone's origins date back to 1892 after Meadville experienced a catastrophic flood and Singley took photos of the disaster and sold them as prints. Keystone was incorporated in 1905.
