OWL Not Mandatory...

...but having one of Brian May's cool folding stereoscope viewers would allow you to appreciate these vintage images in their full 3D glory.

Huh. I guess a guy with a phd is wont to take their interests in any number of varied directions.

I looked up the cost of those owl viewers. Not that bad, it seems. Ranges from around 5 bucks or so to around 15 bucks.

With my eyes, one being far sighted and the other near sighted, not sure how a stereoscopic viewer would work for me anymore. Suppose I could wear glasses, but that seems like it would get in the way of the more immersive experience once truly seeks.

I have a couple of OWLs--they came with Brian's books Diableries: Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell and A Village Lost And Found. If one were so inclined, getting one of his books would be a better way of getting the 3D viewing experience than purchasing an OWL separately.

A purchasing tip worthy of Consumers Reports.
