A Holmes style viewer was the inspiration for this beautiful hardwood stereoscope kit.
Although competitive makers claim "innovation" with a wider hood and viewing area, we at "Lucas-Price" have been building stereoscopes, and stereoscope kits, with this feature (widening of the hood to provide a comfortable fit for people wearing eyeglasses) since 1996. Other design changes, and true innovations attributed to the "Lucas-Price" scope include; - the "Dummy Dot". A plug at the end of the focus rail which keeps the focus bar from sliding off the end and becoming separated and lost; - the "Stay Put Focus". This feature keeps the focus where you set it for easy viewing in any position; - the "leatherette hood" provides a soft area to rest on your forehead unlike uncomfortable, and sharp, wood or tin hoods; - the "lack of a septum" which (in most cases) is a non-functional obstruction that just gets in the way, or breaks off.
This kit is designed for young and old alike. By using furniture quality, properly cured, hardwood (Walnut), and scratch resistant polycarbonate lenses(use compressed air or a soft 100% cotton cloth for cleaning), it presents well, and should last long enough to become a family heirloom. Almost indestructible, it's safe for youngsters to use, unlike scopes with hoods made of tin (that could develop a sharp edge), or thin wood (that can crack and splinter). All parts are secured with brass screws and tacks for a solid assembly.
The kit comes complete with ;
- Parts and instructions for building the kit.
- Some history on the stereoscope.
- Instructions for taking your own 3D photos with a 35mm or digital camera.
- Some sample views for immediate gratification!
The stereoscope can be put together in less than an hour and will be a treasured heirloom for years to come. Using the finest in furniture quality timbers, and exceptionally high quality injection cast lenses, this kit is of wonderful value for the money. Previous clients have said;
" I bought one of your kits last month and just put it together this weekend.
I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with it. Assembly was a no-brainer
and
the finished product looks great and works perfectly."
" I am very happy to have 2 of your stereoscope replica kits. They are used in an exhibit at the New Jersey Historical Society in which some of the "hands-on" portions will include historical "stereoviews" of New Jersey. Your kits are perfect for the exhibit as many people will be handling the stereoscopes."

Merci pour votre proche réponse et meilleures salutations.

Is this stereoscope still available?
Don't know if the above kits are available. Why don't you contact the manufacturer using the phone number or e-mail address above? Found a related link.
If not available, as a modern kit, assembled antique Holmes stereoviewers (stereoscopes) are readily available in antique shops, flea markets, and at auction on eBay.com and stereographica.com.
Thank you for the reply.
I did e-mail the address above a couple of weeks ago, but did not receive a response.
I am looking for replicas to purchase at wholesale, assemble them and then resell them along with new stereo cards of Cape Cod. I know other places on the internet to buy them, but they are asking retail prices.
You might want to check out the PokeScope Pocket Stereoscope ($39 retail), i.e., about the same price, more versatile, and no assembly required. (These are terrific because they can also be used for viewing stereoviews that are part of a website and are displayed on a computer screen.)
Hello, are these kits still available at this wholesale price?
If so, I am would like to purchase.
Adam
You would need to contact the original poster directly as they have no affiliation with the CPRR Museum.
This firm has premade stereoscopes. https://3dgear.com/products/reproduction-holmes-stereoscope
