Good luck with your research Richard
You should find my book on Amazon if you would like a copy - I like selling directly but can not compete with them on shipping costs, so they work out cheaper for you!

Peter,
Hello from Annapolis Maryland. I have a fine100 year old stereoscope but only a couple of images of WWI.
I collect cameras, mostly Kodak. My connection to Ayrshire is that my family name, Templeton, originates there.
I have Kirk records of my Templetons from the mid 1600's albeit the name is 13th century Ayrshire.
I have read several Ayrshire social histories and modern books and I have a small collection of older Ayr and Ayrshire books.
I just spent 5 days in Ayr this recent September and plan to make it a month-long visit in the future.
If anyone has any Templeton ancestry, I would love to hear from you.
Sounds like you have a nice collection. I will try to get your book.
All the best,
Richard Templeton
PS: Forward this to anyone you like.

I am a collector of old photographs specialising in stereoscopy (3D) images, which were the best -selling format of photograph around 1860. I have written a book called "Scotland in 3D - A Victorian Virtual Reality Tour" ISBN 9781527225527 which provides much detail on the topic , also see www.scotlan3d.com.
I am interested in stereoviews of Ayrshire, as I am originally from West Kilbride. In particular, there are 2 series of views dating to late 1850s, early 1860s which are excellent, but unfortunately I have not been able to identify the photographer. If anyone knows anything about them could you please get in touch.
The first series is entitled "Views of the Land of Burns". It includes some remarkable images like the one outside Burns Cottage attached. A typical label is attached (from a view of Culzean) attached as well.
The second series is called "Views in Ayrshire" - there is a similar series probably by the same photographer entitled "Views in Dumfriesshire". Typical label attached.
I hope that someone has some insights into these series.
All the best
Peter Blair
