- Description
- Brown plastic handheld Tru-Vue stereoscope with two rolls of stereoscopic celluloid film, instruction sheet, and Tru-Vue advertisement pamphlet in a black and silver box. The stereoscope has two round lenses extended away from the thin rectangular body that’s fronted with two square translucent windows to admit light - a small black metal lever on the bottom moves the film through the body and both short ends of the body have slots to admit the film. The two reels of film depict scenic views around Banff National Park - Banff and Lake Louise, respectively - and appear to be part of a series. Tru-Vue was bought out by Sawyer’s Inc. in 1960.
