Stereo
viewers were in vogue from the early 1800s and started disappearing in
the early 1900s as other means of entertainment were invented.. Almost
every family had a Stereoptic Viewer and a set of stereo views. Stereo views
ranged from Coney Island beach scenes to the 20th Century Limited and
all things in-between. The stereo views had double panes and when shown in the viewer,
displayed a stereo picture. Steroptic viewers came in all shapes and
sizes, from multiple card viewers to single card viewers like the one
illustrated at left as well as portable fold-up viewers.

This
is an enlarged view of the paper machine at Marinette, Wisc.
There appear to be 30 dryers arranged in
a 4 tier frame. manner followed by a 10 roll calender stack. The
rotating reel has 8 spindles. Paper can be wound on or off the reel from
any of the spindles. The cutter is equipped with 8 slitters, 4 engaged
during this run. The large wood slatted mandrel in the foreground
appears to support the cross machine knife that cuts the sheet to length
after the slitters have cut it to width. The machine is driven by an
overhead line shaft
