A drake wood duck rests on a boggy patch of marsh in this colour-printed stereoview card, a nature scene that comes alive when you view it through a stereoscope. Parlour stereoviews like this one brought wildlife and faraway places into the home around the turn of the 20th century. A card with this same title and number is catalogued in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Burdick Collection and dated to about 1898-1903. It would suit a bird lover, a stereoview collector or a framed display of antique paper ephemera.
