The View-Master

So……how many of you can remember the View-Master?  I can’t because it was before my time.

I remember being a little girl and quite fascinated by the view-master.  I could travel the world sitting on the sofa and not having to ask my parents for money for the trips.

I got to see Alice in Wonderland and prehistoric animals roaming the earth.

You could meet the Partridge Family and other Hollywood stars.

The view-master was pretty darned cool from what I heard.

    I have two of those! And a bunch of the film thingies still. I had a lot of like, cartoon things, but a few were of famous places too. I should dig them up, my kids would get a kick out of them.

    I’m too young to remember these too! haha! Something so simple was so entertaining. This generation doesn’t know what they are missing. Gosh, I wonder where ours got to…

    That is cool! I don’t remember using them, but that could be because my memory is bad. I’m THAT old. ;)
