    My grandsons, ages 4, 5 and 6 absolutely love their papa's (my) Viewmaster! They don't get a lot of screen time, so it's really become something special for them. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    As a kid, I had a friend who had one. His dad was a trucker and would bring reels from all over the country. Thanks for the memories.

    We are the Collector Guys. Just two dudes who celebrate all collectibles. We are by no means experts in anything. Enjoy the video and please share any of your View-Master memories.

    Thank you so much for producing such an excellent video - it was so helpful. The View-Master was our internet when we were kids. We got to see the whole world whenever we wanted! I have a model C in the original box - it had a newspaper clipping of Sid Grauman's obituary in it, along with the Hollywood reel set and some others. It's fun to speculate that it might have actually belonged to Sid or a family member. I also have a bakelite "Standard" projector with all the original fare - movie tickets, blank announcements, etc. I need to get more reels though, I only have about 10 or so. Wish there was a way to post photos - would love to share with you. Do you know of any way to date the reels? Thanks again - we are kindred spirits.

    I like to see people not snapping the advance lever back. It can crack the shell of the viewer and result in misaligned images.

    Why do people always insist on having irritating and distracting piano music playing in the background? I mean what is the fecking point???????

      It can be for a number of reasons. Sometimes it's just to fill the quiet. Sometimes it's to evoke an emotion. I was going for nostalgia but looks like I hit anger with you instead. Thanks for the comment though. Seriously I mean that.

      @@collectorguys Ah! the old pious moral high ground finished off with a dose of passive aggression. Just what I expected.
