A Lesson From a Master

I am a 79 year old retired photographer. I have been involved in three dimensional photography since 1952. In that time I have taken several thousand stereo slides, but in no way do I equal the stereoscopic accomplishments of Harold Lloyd. The man was one of my idols not only because of his achievments in stereography, but because of his abilities as a consummate performer in motion pictures. This book is meaningless to the one eyed mind. Those whose satisfaction is gratified by a one eyed picture of reality are now being slowly awakened to the fact that we see in three dimensions, something some of us have been aware of for the past fifty-six years . . . and, much longer. Because of new technology and the public's realization that we see in 3D (how long did that take to come about?) stereoscopy will finally come into it's own. This book is one of my Bibles and I think that when people realize what they are seeing out of BOTH eyes, they will embrace, enjoy and cherish this volume as much as I do. Let me add that Harold Lloyd's granddaughter Suzzane is one of the most gorgeous women in the world and there is no way possible that I could wish her more happiness and well being.
