Gaumont Block-Notes Stereo

The Gaumont Block-Notes Stereo is an early 20th-century French stereoscopic plate camera built in a flat, folding 'jumelle' style designed to slip into a coat pocket. It produced paired exposures on small glass plates for stereo viewing, a format that was popular with amateur photographers in the years before roll film displaced plates.

Sales data for the Block-Notes Stereo is extremely thin: the only recorded UK auction hammer result we have is £210 from May 2011, so a reliable current price band cannot be drawn. As of today in 2026, anyone trying to work out what a Block-Notes Stereo is worth should treat that single figure as indicative only and watch specialist saleroom catalogues for fresh comparables before committing to a value.
