Is that the one where you are supposed to put a piece of paper between your eyes like a dividing screen or stare at the image with cross-eyes so they blend into one?
I seem to remember some sort of 3D trick like that from when I was a kid.
A bit like the old "Viewmaster" toy we all used to have - you need to look at one of the images with each eye.

If you have a 3d television you can view in 3d with active glasses.

THIS website explains two techniques for viewing left/right images in "stereo".
