Last time I visited my grandparents they, out of no where, start pulling out all of these really old photos from their wedding.
Now to fully understand how cool this is, my grandparents, and mom are from Cuba. They came here in the 60s. They were a very wealthy family down, there but had to leave EVERYTHING down there to be able to come to the states. So when they found out they were leaving they started mailing all of their photos to family members that lived in the states. They felt this was the most important thing to "sneak" out of the country.
The photos from the wedding were beautiful, at their giant house, on the beach in cuba. The photos were all hand colored and stuff.
ANYWAY, he had a stack of photos from the wedding that were like cards with two images on them. The told me they were to be put in a veiwer thing, and they would be 3D looking, but the veiwer was left in Cuba. It has been over 50 years since they have able to see these pictures.
I have no idea what type of photo this would be. What it would be called. What sort of veiwer would be needed to see them. But I really really want to try to find something to see these pictures with. I was wondering if anyone here may have any ideas about these, or could maybe point me in the direction of some info.
Thanks!
