France, 1920s

This miniature cardboard stereo viewer has a deep green, textured finish with gold embossed text and lens holders. Focus is adjustable by pulling the front and back ends apart. Ours didn’t come with any views but it is designed for miniature glass stereoviews. Although slightly different in how its focusing is accomplished, the overall viewer design style of the Lilliput — small box shape, textured finish, embossed text — is similar to both the Mignon and Juwel stereoscopes.
