Original 1860s, circa 1870 tissue stereoview showing a group of three women, two showing their breasts. This is a "hold-to-light" tissue stereoview consisting of two layers of thin paper, the top layer with the image, the back tinted.. the combined effect when looking through a backlighted stereoviewer is a color 3D scene!
This stereoview is approximately 7" x 3.5". As was common with tissue views, there is some minor tearing on the left side, some of which has been very nicely repaired.
