First 3D colour photo

Frederic Eugene Ives (1856–1937) was making colour stereoscopic photographs (Kromograms) by 1895 [Roberts]. Separation transparencies for an 1895 stereo Kromogram may be found at the Museum of the History of Science. Two 1897 stereo Kromograms are reproduced in colour (resynthesised in 1999) at Forgotten Futures. The largest collection of Kromograms is at George Eastman House, but none are dated. [Wooters]

In 1909 Eugène Estanave (1867 – c. 1937) proposed an 'autostereochrome' plate, and a autostereoscopic colour photograph by him, from c. 1910, is reproduced in Timby.

In 1953 Edwin Land (1909–1991) demonstrated three-colour Vectograph (polarised 3D) images formed by successive transfer of cyan, magenta, and yellow dichroic dyes from gelatin relief images to Vectograph sheet. [Digital Tiger]

The first three-colour holograms, viewable in white light, were created in 1966, by Lawrence Lin, Keith Pennington, George W. Stroke and A. Labeyrie. [Johnston, p202]
