Traditional stereoscopic photography consists of creating a 3-D
illusion starting from a pair of 2-D images. When looking at a
stereograph through a stereoscope, one sees a single image
that appears both three-dimensional and life-sized. Viewing
stereographs was a popular amusement from the mid-1850s well
into the twentieth century. Traveling sales agents sold
stereographs, as did novelty stores, book stores, drug stores
and catalogs.
B.W. Kilburn & Co. was started in Littleton, NH in 1876, by the
Kilburn Brothers, Benjamin West and Edward Kilburn, and
became one of the major publishers of sterographs at the turn
of the century, producing many scenes of the White Mountains.
If you should have some of these photographic images, with no
way to view them in 3-D, the Society has available a
stereoscope for your use. Come visit us at the Society office!
