About this Event
MIDCENTURY STEREOPANORAMA presented by Eric Drysdale is a must-see event happening at 3-D SPACE. Get ready to immerse yourself in a unique experience that combines the nostalgia of midcentury aesthetics with the magic of stereoscopic photography. Join us for a journey through time and space as Eric Drysdale showcases a collection of stunning images that will transport you to another dimension. Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind event!
Hold the viewer to your eyes, press the button to illuminate the vivid, full-color 3-D Kodachrome slide and be transported back in time. Discover the amazing and forgotten technology enthusiasts call “the virtual reality of the 1950s.”
Introduced in 1947, the Stereo Realist camera and viewer brought full-color 3-D photography with astonishing realism to the masses. The craze peaked in popularity in the mid-1950s — reaching hundreds of thousands of American homes — then slowly disappeared.
Emmy-winning writer Eric Drysdale has been collecting these uncanny, immersive snapshots for nearly 30 years. In this intimate salon you’ll learn about the science and history behind the technology, then see the very best of his collection in high-quality, fully-restored vintage viewers– the way they were meant to be seen.
You’ll feel almost as if you’re there (and then) as you explore every aspect of post-war American life: work and play; home and travel; city, suburb and country. It’s the closest to time travel you’re likely to experience.
