Restore the twin pictures on a stereograph card
A stereograph card carries two nearly identical pictures side by side on a curved mount, made to be viewed with a hand held viewer. They collect dust, foxing and a yellow tone. Send a photo of the card, and the bot cleans both sides and keeps them matching.

Make it in TelegramTwo pictures, one scene
The left and right images are taken a few centimeters apart so the brain combines them into depth. A restoration that treats the sides differently can ruin that effect. Ask the bot to keep both halves consistent, and check that spots disappear on each. Small differences in perspective belong to the card and should remain. If you want to use the pair in a viewer or a 3D app, crop each side evenly after the repair.
What the mount tells you
Many cards carry a title, a place and a publisher on the front or on the back. These facts help date a picture and identify a street or a building. Photograph both sides before you do anything else. After restoration, store the text with the images. Collectors and local historians often value the caption as much as the scene, so a clean photo of the full card is worth keeping next to the cropped pictures.
Tips
- Keep the curved card flat with a soft weight while shooting.
- Photograph the caption and publisher on the mount.
- Ask for each half as a separate crop for a viewer or print.
- Mention if the subject is a street, a building or a landmark.
