San Francisco Emporium Ruins Stereoview c1906 H C White Earthquake Fire CA H1690

Description: "Wreck of Interior of Emporium which collapsed after fire, San Francisco Disaster, U. S. A." (8705) Published by Hawley C. White, who had first started producing stereoviews in 1899. He was well known for high quality and innovation. This is a stereoview (also known as a stereograph or stereoscope card). It was one of the first forms of 3D photography. The images were captured with a special stereoscopic camera, which had two lenses - simulating the view of our left and right eyes. The two, nearly identical pictures were then mounted next to each other (most commonly on a piece of cardstock, glued on as photographs or printed as lithographs). The image could then be seen in three dimensions when viewed through a device known as a stereoscope, stereopticon, and/or televiewer. Standard-size stereograph, measuring about 3.5 x 7 inches. Will be shipped safely and securely! All items are protected in archival sleeves and rigid cardstock.
