Stereoview:19th Century
3D
Period of Use:
1851 - 1940
 |
 |
The
Stereoview is a double photograph, or printed image, paired in such
a manner that when viewed with a stereoscope it appears as a three dimensional
or solid image.
The
earliest stereoviews
were daguerreotypes, and the rarest tintypes. The color and thickness
of a mount, and the printing used for the labels, can provide a great
deal of information about a stereo view.
