The purpose here is not to duplicate the original image, from Okinawa Soba's stream, but to generate a downloadable animated gif to assist viewing and presentation.

Okinawa Soba posted several CC licensed stereoimages by T. Enami documenting life in early 20th century Japan (the Meiji period). The original image (circa 1898), presented for cross-eyed viewing and showing porcelain being packed for shipping to California is one of many stunning stereo compositions. This animated gif version exploits motion parallax to give a stereo illusion without eyestrain, to see what the photographer envisioned.
