It's a pity it's only half of the pair. We 3D people really would like to see the entire image.
[It may be only half the pair but it is the entire image. These stereographs were made using two consecutively exposed glass plates. - Dave]

What an amazing photo of so long ago and what a shame photography wasn't invented earlier.

Nice English saddle on the left and irons that look exactly like a pair we use with our horses today.
