What it is
{"overview":"The Shew Xit Stereo is a British-made wooden stereoscopic plate camera, built for producing paired side-by-side images intended for stereo viewing. With just one data point spanning more than two decades, today's value is difficult to pin down with precision, and condition, completeness of the bellows, lenses and plate holders, and provenance would all heavily influence any current price.","buying_guide":"On any wooden stereo camera of this age, inspect the bellows for pinholes and corner wear, check the wood and leather covering for splits or lifting, and confirm that both lenses and shutters are present, matched and functional.
