Sterling Stereo Viewer
United States, Chicago, Illinois, 1950s
This ivory version of the Sterling has the elegant & individually adjustable gold eyepieces. It is presumably made by the same company that made the practically identical Shaffer, Colorama, and Douglas viewers. There were two versions (both shown below): one had eyepieces that could be individually focused and the other version had a knob on the side that would focus both eyes simultaneously. That second version was very similar in style to the Busch and Verascope Lumineux viewers.
