Very rare early Victorian stereoscope complete with 56

cards. The cards are dated and some of the captions
are in 6 languages. Mostly published by Strochmeyer &
Amp; Wyman of New York. Photographers include J.W.
Thomas and F.S. Mann of Hastings.
Three examples of the image cards displayed here. The witty captions are:
'Oh! You naughty man!'

'You bashful little creature!'
...Victorian pornography - some might say...
