*** ANTIQUE SPIRELLA CORSETS SLIDE / IMAGE VIEWER ***
This is a very rare slide viewer made by Spirella, an American corset manufacturer founded in 1904. This is an extremely rare item! Dating from the 1930's, these stereo viewers could be purchased from the corsetieres, for the purpose of showing clients their merchandise (the images would have models modelling the Spirella corsets). Amazing you had to buy one of these to see their products, but that is h...ow it was if you wanted to view their collection.
It is stamped to the central metal plate inside 'The Camerascope Patent No. 173849'.
In good condition for its age but does have wear throughout and has slightly rusted in parts. Sold as seen - See photos.
The viewer is made from metal and has a spring opening mechanism which still works well.
