Underwood & Underwood Stereoscope
3D Stereoscope with a set of 69 prints of places around the world.
Examples include:
Leaning tower of Piza
Banana Plantation, Hawaii
Palace of Fontainebleau
Karl Johan’s St, Christiania
St Peter’s Dome, Rome
Unter den Linden, Berlin
Temple of Karnak, Egypt
Cathedral, Queenstown (Cobh)
Eiffel Tower, Paris
Church of Nativity, Palestine
Stockholm, Sweden
Each plate is a different location spanning many countries.
I can’t date this exactly but the plates have a copyright ranging from 1897-1904 give or take.
Founded in 1881, they were publishing boxed sets of tourist locations around the turn of the century so I estimate this to be from around this time
The plates are in very good condition with only about two in a weakened but viewable state.
Each plate had a description on the back of each location.
The Steroscooe itself has wear and tear but well intact and works perfectly
