"The Cliff House and Seal Rocks - S. S. Coptic passing en route to Japan - San Francisco, U. S. A." (605)
Published by Hawley C. White, who had first started producing stereoviews in 1899. He was well known for high quality and innovation.
This is a stereoview (also known as a stereograph or stereoscope card). It was one of the first forms of 3D photography. The images were captured with a special stereoscopic camera, which had two lenses - simulating the view of our left and right eyes. The two, nearly identical pictures were then mounted next to each other (most commonly on a piece of cardstock, glued on as photographs or printed as lithographs). The image could then be seen in three dimensions when viewed through a device known as a stereoscope, stereopticon, and/or televiewer.
Standard-size stereograph, measuring about 3.5 x 7 inches.
