Each box is mostly yellow with black and red manufacturer and product details throughout - there are two paper adhesive stickers holding the box closed, the one that has the expiration date on it on each box is broken.Verichrome was a kind of panchromatic film that yielded high-quality black and white photographs thanks to the fine-grained emulsion. Film Packs were basic forms of storage meant to be used shortly after purchasing as their [mostly] paper packaging did not keep out oxygen well and had a tendency to fog over time, rendering the film unusable in the long term. It was replaced by the more stable Verichrome Pan in the 1950s.

- Description
- Plain cardboard box of 3 1/4 x 5 1/3[?] Kodak Dry Mounting Tissue held closed with a long strip of paper adhesive wrapped over the lid to the bottom of the box and a paper adhesive label on the lid displaying the manufacturer and direction of use details. Dry Mounting Tissues were a kind of adhesive used to attach a print to a support or mount [like card stock, cardboard, wood, foam core, etc] that is activated by heat and pressure. A smooth piece of paper would be laid over the print, with the tissue between the print and the support, and then a hot iron would be pressed over the whole area, melting the tissue and activating the glue. Once cool, the glue was set.

- 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.
