Default Re: Some Early Stereos...

For anyone who is unaware, stereo means 'solid' - hence stereophonic and stereoscopic, referring to the three-dimensional images produced.
Stereotype alludes to the fact that the whole illustration is made in one piece. They were often pierced, however, to allow standard type to be used to insert a maker's name or whatever.
