Description from the seller
Set of 20 stereoscopic photographs on glass 6 x 13 cm – Austria, Tyrol – June 1937 – storage binder
Remarkable set of 20 original stereoscopic glass photographs in the 6 x 13 cm format, dated precisely to June 1937, kept in their period storage box with the original handwritten inventory sheet.
This documentary series offers an exceptional historical and tourist testimony of the Austrian Tyrolean region on the eve of World War II.
The shots revolve around urban architecture, mountain transport, and alpine landscapes:

The ascent of the Hafelekarspitze (2,334 m) in Innsbruck via funicular and cable car, including the station restaurant, panoramic views, as well as chamois and sheep in the snow.
Traditional and religious scenes with the Hall calvary, a Tyrolean calvary at field edge and haymaking.
Remarkable alpine landscapes including the Ehrwald valley in backlight, the Zugspitze massif (2,968 m), St. Anton in the Rosanna valley and its torrents.
The Austria–Germany border area, an era-era coach, and the railway viaduct.
