In the Footsteps of Victorian Stereo-Photographers
We welcome back to the Blog, especially for Stereoscopy Day, photo historian Dr. Peter Blair. In this article he discusses a great passion of many 3-D photographers and collectors: going back to locations in Victorian stereoviews. He not only recreates the images over a century later, but he explores the understanding and appreciation of them.

We welcome back to the Stereoscopy Blog photo historian Denis Pellerin.

Denis has once again dug deep in his research (and spent a fortune on postcards!) to rediscover Damoy.
