Historical Marine Photography

Antique Photos from Stereopticon Slides

Stereo (3D) photographic card collecting and viewing was an enormously popular activity in the late 1800's and early 1900's. These photos presented the entire world to the public in vivid detail. Here are a view (2D) images from my collection. (I only scanned one of the 2 images on each card.)
