Description from the seller

Lot of 13 stereoscopic plates 6x13 cm — Bizerte & Tunisia (circa 1928–1930)

Fine set of 13 original glass plate stereoscopic views in 6 by 13 cm format, mainly focused on Bizerte and Tunisia.

This lot includes a view of a warship of the French Navy moored in the Bizerte canal. Also visible is a French fleet battleship in navigation. One view shows an old automobile from the era driving past the Caterpillar dealership storefront. The lot presents a lively scene in a village square with Renault FT tanks of the era surrounded by the local population. One plate captures a traditional well with inhabitants and their mounts in the Tunisian countryside. There is a view of a Tunisian village with its mosque, minaret, and people riding donkeys. Finally, a plate shows a windy seafront with palm trees near the port facilities.

Inventory recap of the lot:

- Warship of the French Navy moored in the Bizerte canal
- Battleship of the French fleet crossing the Bizerte canal
- Classic automobile parked in front of the Caterpillar dealership
- Renault FT tank on display or passing through a square in Tunisia
- Traditional well, inhabitants and mounts (horses and donkeys)
- Scene of a Tunisian village, mosque, minaret and people on donkeys
- Seaside, wind-storm and palm trees near port installations

Date estimation (circa 1928–1930):

The warships of the French Navy moored at Bizerte correspond to Mediterranean fleet movements in the 1920s–1930s.

The model of the automobile and the silhouette of the light armored vehicle are consistent with civilian and military equipment in service during the interwar period.

Your purchase includes:

– The 13 original era glass plates.

– 13 prints on modern 10 × 15 cm paper.
Impressions printed on glossy photo paper, not period.

– 13 digital files gifted.
The files used for the prints are sent via messaging.
