Trip to the library

I just went to the Seattle Public Library and found some great 3D books:
Two Points of View: The history of the Parlor Stereoscope by Harold Jenkins.
Copyright 1957
I found a great quote by Oliver Wendell Holmes. "On the very threshold
of the Civil War, Holmes envisioned: 'The next European war will send us
stereographs of battles. It is asserted that the bursting shell can be
photographed. The time is perhaps at hand when a flash of light, as
sudden and brief as that of lightning which shows a whirling wheel
standing stock still, shall preserve the very instant of the shock of
contact of mighty armies.'"
Stereo Views: A History of Stereographs in America and Their Collection by
William Culp Darrah Copyright 1964
How does this compare to the Stereo Views by John Waldsmith in Reel 3D?
I thinks I'm going to have to get the one from Reel 3D because this one
is great!
Principle of Stereoscopy by Herbert C. McKay F.R.P.S Copyright 1948
The figure it has of the Stereo Realist shows f/3.5 lenses and a top
shutter
of 1/200 and says of it "This is a domestic camera whose quality places
it in
the de luxe class of stereo cameras". There is a great picture of the
Keystone
Telebinocular. Man, that is a hurkin big viewer!
I have a question that I'll put in the next posting.
Thank you if you've read this far.
