Description
A collection of vintage stereoscopic viewers and associated media featuring items from Sawyer’s View-Master, VistaScreen, and MiniCine. The collection includes a black plastic Sawyer’s View-Master Model E stereoscopic viewer housed in its original maroon textured cardboard box, accompanied by several View-Master reels in paper sleeves with titles including 7 More Wonders of the World and Loch Lomond, Scotland. The VistaScreen items comprise two viewers: a black plastic handheld model with an integrated head strap and a red plastic folding viewer embossed with the VistaScreen logo. These are accompanied by an original graphic cardboard box for The VistaScreen 3D Viewer and a smaller slide box for VistaScreen Dogs Series 49. A large quantity of VistaScreen 3D photographic cards is included, with the top card identified as Snowdonia, Series 37. Also present is a folded paper film strip for a MiniCine projector titled Little Red Riding Hood, described as a MiniCine animated film. The items are constructed from plastic, cardboard, and paper.
Width of display area: approximately 32 inches.
Condition report:
The collection is in used, vintage condition. The viewers appear complete with no obvious structural damage, though they show surface scuffing and dust from storage. The original cardboard packaging for the View-Master and VistaScreen viewers exhibits significant age-related wear, including scuffing, creasing, and tearing to the edges and corners. The paper sleeves and photographic cards show typical signs of handling, age-toning, and minor corner wear. The MiniCine film strip shows some creasing and edge wear consistent with use.
