I just built a Holmes-Bates American Stereoscope from a nice kit.  The kit was
purchased in Geneva IL for $30.  It is made of cardboard, but you laminate from
 3 to 5 pieces together to create a solid piece.  The glue (peel/stick) is very
 strong.  Black leatherette covers all the pieces.  The plastic lenses are good
 and it includes a slide bar (for single lens cameras) and 6 cards photographed
 with the twin Hasslebhal cameras!  The kit is manufactured by Van Cort Instrum
ents, Inc, Northampton MA.  While not a great viewer, it was fun to build (abou
t 4 hours) and is a nice aux. viewer.  It is a little hard to use with glasses.
  This is a brand new kit. Instructions include info on shooting and mounting c
ards.   An instresting NEW product for Stereo.  Gene
