A bit of history

I though it was important to give you and small background history of who invented the anaglyph.

The anaglyph method of stereoscopic photography was invented /patented by Louis Ducas Du Hauron in 1891. He was the first person to produce a print of an anaglyph image in red and blue colours.
Louis was a french scientist who published a book in 1869 called 'Les Couleurs En Photographie' which made some major theoretical proposals to aid the advancement of using colour in photographs.

The idea of the anaglyph's whilst specifically linked and patented by Louis Ducas Du Hauron, was made by W. Rollman in 1853. He theoretically illustrated the idea in a line drawing using red and blue lines on a black field, he used red and blue glasses to demonstrate the effect.
