MAG-020 Magic Spectacles - Photographic Supplement to The Magnet
The Magnet6
Commencing with the 14 February 1936 issue of The Magnet (front cover illustrated above) and for the next five issues, the publication gave away six sheets of photographs. They are printed in blue and red and are very 'fuzzy', that's because by looking at them with the 'Magic Spectacles' the images would appear in 3D. These sheets rarely become available these day.
I've tried searching the internet for more information without much success but I presume that these were one of the earliest types of 3D imagery.
