This listing features an Antique 1930s Keystone Stereoview showing the River Dnepr and Bridge in Kiev, Ukraine, while the country was under Soviet control. Published by the Keystone View Company, number 34001. The curved cardboard stereoview card has two black and white photographs of a birdseye view of the River Dnepr, a bridge, and the capital city of Kiev in Ukraine in the 1930s. The title of the card says "Kiev, the Capital of the Ukrainian S. S. R., and the River Dnepr, Soviet Union (Russia)", showing that the country of Ukraine was still under the control of the Soviet Union at the time that this card was published. The back of the card has a brief history of the city and river. Great condition and the perfect addition to any collection! Antique souvenir with a beautiful scene and interesting history! 

A stereoview is a cardboard card, often times curved, that has two nearly identical photographs side by side, which can be placed in a stereoscope viewer to make a 3D-like rendering of the image. They were most popular in the late Victorian era, from the 1870s to the 1920s. Each photograph is taken from the angle of each eye, creating an illusion of a single three-dimensional image when paired together in a stereoscope. Common stereoviews include famous buildings, monuments, and other travel destinations that would often be purchased by travelers as souvenirs.
