I found this at a yard sale, cleaned it and made the stand. The forrunner of the Viewmaster? Much nicer looking, I think.
A Steriopticon. Even sounds better that 'Viewmaster'.

The last shot puts me in mind of the alien In a Buggs Bunny cartoon.

When I was a kid in the 1930's I spent many hours looking at a huge stereo photo collection in the Baldwin Public Library which had at least a dozen of those viewers in a special alcove devoted entirely to viewing the collection, a small addition to the building to house it, and comfortable furnishings all left to our city in a wealthy resident's last will and testament.
