Kora Stereokora 35 Stereoscope

Italy, 1960s

This is unusual vintage filmstrip stereoscope was invented by Malini Severino for Kora SRL under patents DE1289330B & GB1105833A. The filmstrip is inside of a removable cartridge and is advanced by turning the knobs on the bottom.

Inserting/Removing the Korafilm Cartridge

Pull down on the spring-loaded advance knobs to get the film cartride in and out.

Lens “Shutter”

Shutters cover each lens and open (with an oddly satisfying “click”) when the stereo pair is correctly in place.

For Adults Only

The film cartridge that came with this one has 16 color images and is titled “Dory and the Lollipop” and while the images on it are not nudes, they’re not for kids!

Here’s another example of a separately-sold stereo film cartridge for the Stereokora 35 viewer. The one has seven color scenes of Italian beaches.
