These are made using the Krőmgram process. There's some background information here --

Tip -- To view the slides in 3-D:
--Click on an image to open it full size.
--Flatten your hand and hold it along the bridge of your nose, so it divides your field of vision.
--Bring your hand to the center divider of the two images.
--Relax your eyes, softly focusing on the images and gradually pull back from the screen.
It may take two or three tries, but eventually the two photos will merge into a single 3-D image.

You are very welcome. I had the pictures sitting on my computer for a while and finally got around to
posting them. Too bad the people appear blurry. It would be really neat to see them in period attire.
