Stereopticon card with two photos of a Great Lakes steamship docked in Toronto harbour, c1900-1905. Patches of snow on the ground and cloudy sky overhead.

Still sorting through my #stereopticon cards of 1900-ish #Toronto. Here's "Steamer Kingston at Toronto in Winter."

Stereopticon card, 1900-05, with two images of churches in downtown Toronto (Metropolitan Methodist in the foreground and St Michael's Cathedral in the background). Many wires overhead, a pedestrian and two vehicles (possibly horse drawn) on the street.

For #ThingThursday:
yet another #stereopticon card of 1900-ish #Toronto.

Metropolitan Church and St. Michael's Cathedral
from the intersection of Queen Street East and Church Street.

Both are still standing, but the same perspective is impossible to recapture on current Street View.

Hand-held, wood-and-metal stereopticon viewer c. 1900(?).

I've got the very latest tech, too.

Stereopticon card with two photos of Toronto Street, Toronto, c. 1900-05. There are several figures on the street as well as an early automobile and possibly a delivery truck.

It's #ThingThursday again.

Here's another #stereopticon card illustrating #Toronto scenes, circa 1900-05.

Every structure shown in these photos except No. 10 Toronto Street (the building on the left with the classical facade, originally a post office, built in 1853) has since been demolished.

Stereopticon card (two photos) showing Bay Street, the Temple Building and Old City Hall, Toronto, c. 1910.

A #Stereopticon card, probably 1905-10, showing Bay Street, the Temple Building (built 1868; demolished 1970) and Toronto City Hall (built 1899).

One of a set of #Toronto scenes I found in the basement.
