Foldable Stereoscope, Metal, with Original Storage Box
Details
T. C. & E. C. Jack was a Scottish publishing house based in Edinburgh. In 1905, the company published The Edinburgh Stereoscopic Atlas of Anatomy. The atlas was not a conventional bound book. It consisted of paper mounted stereoviews, each with black-and-white paired images and explanatory anatomical text. The work was issued in five boxes, commonly described as sections.
The stereoscope bearing the name of T. C. & E. C. Jack may be related to the publication of the atlas.
