View-Master 1950s-60s Reel Lots
type: Product
description: A true and classic retro throwback, the View-Master was a truly incredible innovation when it debuted at the 1939 World's Fair, and it was invented right here in Portland, Oregon! It displays two separate frames - most often Kodachrome color photos or single frames of animated cartoons - and combines them to form a single stereoscopic image, which appears three-dimensional.

Lot A: Travel This lot focuses on landscapes, monuments, and cultural information, captured in gorgeous full-color photographs. There are 4 loose reels, 20 sleeved reels, and 3 sets of three sleeved reels each, one of which (Sweden) still has its reel packet. A cursory check through the reels didn't show any major film discoloration, though some seem like they may be mildly discolored by time. Lot B: Disney This lot is 19 loose reels of pure Disney fun! Most of these are animation frames, from Steamboat Willie to Finding Nemo, though there are also two reels of Disney on Parade. Two reels - one each from The Lady and the Tramp and Pinocchio - have significant discoloration and some scratches on the film, and My Disney ABC's …
