1860's - 1900's Aust SV Images

[Teemore]

Here's a few more, the W.A.views are early 1900's the others circa late 1800's stereo effect in these images varies.

Info on how to view in 3D can be checked out in previous set of images, Casper posted some good info and link.

Burra Burra Mines in S.A.
Entrance to Fremantle Harbour W.A
Pontoon Bridge over Murray at Echuca .... this a scarce hand tinted view, each one had to be hand coloured (no colour printers in those days).
Foreshore at Geelong (2x) with sailing ships.
Kalgoorlie Railway station.

Cheers T.

Love the second pic with the two ships. One timber tall masted one tied up and a more modern out on the water. Very profound moment in history. Wonder if the modern one is a navy ship and the other a merchant ship ?

Thanks again Teemore, the view of Kalgoorlie railway station is cross-eyed view and has okay 3D effect....

Wonder what it looks like these days.

No problem, some have better 3D depth than others, I'm only picking out ones that have some interesting history rather than 3d effect. Sadly serious eye problems leave me with just 1 good eye so free viewing is as good as impossible for me these days, but still OK with a stereoscope. Also used to do my own views as a member of Sydney SV club.

Yes the 1 out "at sea" may well be an old warship, like the Cerebus (have an image of it somewhere), they were called "monitors" for some reason, here's what she looks like now .....

I think this type of ship were all named after the USS monitor that fought in the first iron clad vs iron clad battle during the American civil war.
