My older (or has she become my younger) sister had those for her wedding in 53. If I remember right, the provider had a 3-D specialist. who posed different shots from the standard pix (which they also got for their album). They had a special battery-powered 3-D viewer which you held up to your eyes to see the pictures. There was also a projector available, but it was too hokey for my sister.
It's been just under 50 years since I've seen them, but it must have worked, my sister was barely 16 when she got married and they are still married. Larry
