S.I.P. Stereo Two Doves

Title

S.I.P. Stereo Two Doves

Description

1900? Three stereopticon cards by S.I.P. of "Two Doves." S.I.P. $24 from Bertrand Cocq, Calonne-Ricouart, France, Sept., '20.

We have cards #1, #2, and #4 of this set. Might it include six? The first card presents the two birds lovingly together – at the same door used in cards #4, #5, and #6 of the stereopticon series of GA! This is a matter of killing two doves with one stone! The female or "stay at home" dove seems to be the same actress as in both the ant in that GA series and as Perrette in MM. In card #2, is the male dove feeling bored or perhaps some form of wanderlust? What, we might ask, is his female friend doing? By card #4, she is waving good-bye with her kerchief. Perhaps in cards #5 and #6, he will experience the trials of the world and return to her loving arms.
