Is that a stereoscope? @karamen

It’s called a stereoscope. I found it with a big batch of images. It looks old, but it may be a reproduction. Still pretty cool! You look through the viewer and the two images become one in 3D.

Here is the principle (from Wikipedia)
“Two separate images are printed side-by-side. When viewed without a stereoscopic viewer the user is required to force his eyes either to cross, or to diverge, so that the two images appear to be three. Then as each eye sees a different image, the effect of depth is achieved in the central image of the three.
A simple stereoscope is limited in the size of the image that may be used. A more complex stereoscope uses a pair of horizontal periscope-like devices, allowing the use of larger images that can present more detailed information in a wider field of view. The stereoscope is essentially an instrument in which two photographs of the same object, taken from slightly different angles, are simultaneously presented, one to each eye. Each picture is focused by a separate lens, and the two lenses are inclined so as to shift the images toward each other and thus ensure the visual blending of the two images into one three-dimensional image.” -

I did some research. It sells for around $150 US. Maybe it will get me a tripod. Anyone want to bid on it?? đŸ™‚

My husband has one of those, along with a stack of steroscopic photos. It was passed down to him through several generations. It really is a beautiful relic!
