Well back in the 50's you could create your own ViewMaster reels using 35mm film, a ViewMaster camera , and empty reels. Today there is a digital process that allows the automatic creation of ViewMaster reels that are made from a single piece of transparency material. If you Google "custom viewmaster reel" you'll find lots of hits. I personally know the two gentlemen that provide these services:

Of course if you are really interested in stereoscopic photography, both past and present, you should go to one of the yearly conventions. Here's what happened at last year's convention . Next year's convention (2019) will also be in Ohio. If you are seriously interested in s3D, there is no better place to experience world-class 3D images and learn from experts in the field.

Thanks for the links Bill.

I don't live in America but I've seen a few 3D Expos in the past my city.

The closest to 3D without glasses is laser photos on the wall, if only they could do this with video it would be great.
