View-Master
View-Master
For weeks, I’ve been trying to find the
name of this product. I would discuss it
with other people from my generation.
And, I finally discovered the name of this toy from my childhood. You see, you would stick these paper
disks into the top of the machine and point the View-Master into a light to see
the images.
The disk would have evenly spaced photos
that were viewable through the View-Master.
You would change pictures through a click on a side handle.
I fondly remember getting one of these
things as a birthday gift. I remember getting the Star
Trek II Wrath of Khan Disk-Set and watching it over and over again. I had
no idea they even made some for the
TNG show.
I guess this was what we had before really
good videogames and DVDs of our favorite movies. (We also had the Read-Along books and tapes)
However to my surprise, Fisher Price is
still making View-Masters. They
even have a site.
I might just get one.
However, why do I feel this would be
something a hipster would buy?
This woman is a little bit too happy for her own good.
