Interesting, Graphic Photo

[Good Pwny]

Good historic image.
The cards came in sets of 75-100-200-and-300
I have the 100 set it also came with a sterioptican viewer.
I am including pictures of my set to give you and idea of what it is, these were put out in the early 1920's.
The last photo is of fallen highlanders in their kilts.

Very nice set steve sterioptican is what i should have said didnt think any one would have known what i ment. Like the new avatar by the way steve.

The avatar is a picture of the belt buckle I have worn for the last 40 years and still wear. When the leather wears out I cut out another leather belt blank , dye it and mount the buckle on the belt.
I had several great great grandfathers, plus uncles, etc., etc., fight in the US civil war on both sides. The buckle belonged to a fellow named Tucker that was a Morman and fought in an Illinois outfit. I have a Confederate buckle from another great great grandfather but it is to damned valuable to wear.

Most would not have a clue what a sterioptican is.
one thing I forgot to mention, the reason there are 2 photo's on the card is that they are slightly different. A camera that takes pictures for sterioptic pictures takes 2 photos at the same time both at a slightly different angle.
When they are viewed they produce a 3D image that gives a sense of depth, like a 3d movie.
