Limited Edition (300) View-Master set of "The
Strange Case of Dr. Addison and the Crosswell Twins" by
Christopher Schneberger. View-Master set comes with 2 reels (14
images), printed insert detailing the story, and one black viewer. The
reels are new, custom made by Fisher-Price for the artist. Each reel is
signed and hand numbered.
This set was made in conjunction with an exhibition by the same name,
and features the images made by Dr. Addison of Regina Crosswell and the
ghost of her twin sister, Lydia. Read below for a description of the
exhibition:
In the spring of 1908, Dr. Charles Addison disappeared. The noted
botanist, amateur zoologist, and photographer, had been making a series
of images of a young girl named Regina Crosswell. Regina's twin sister,
Lydia, had died in the winter, though the circumstances were unclear.
Dr. Addison, however, had become convinced that Lydia had not entirely
departed from our earthly plane. We have re-created Dr. Addison's studio
and invite you to visit, peruse the photographs Addison made, and draw
your own conclusions. All images are in glorious 3D! The
images from this set won the Paul Wing award (best of show) at the
2005 National Stereoscopic Association conference near Dallas.
