label: Description
content: This is a pair of square steroscopic images mounted on a curved, orange support. The images are all in one piece -- they have not been cut into two pieces. The tops of the images show where they can be trimmed for an arched/curved appearance. The images depict a salesman (standing) kissing a woman (also standing). The salesman is holding a briefcase and hat in his left hand. A man seated in front of the couple, with his back to them, is looking at a stereograph with a stereoscope. The implied scenario is that the salesman is kissing the wife while the husband is distracted by the stereoscope.
