Stereopticon Slides

1900? Fables de la Fontaine: Le Renard et les Raisins.  No. 8.  Stereopticon slide.  From Sawyer Auctions and Antiques, West Fargo, ND, through eBay, Oct., '14.

I presume that there is a significant collection of fable stereopticon slides.  Here at least is one!  The nobleman shuns the lady (ladies?) he is offered.  Hand colored? 

1900? Fables de la Fontaine: Le Vieillard et les Trois Jeunes Hommes.  #3.  Stereopticon slide.  Unknown source.

I wondered earlier if there was a set.  Now we have a second member of the set.  The label on the verso of this slide is from the same series as the label on the front side of FG.  Those are three rowdy youths!  Compare the skin color, for example of the elderly man's face, in  the two images.
