If You Know What This Is
Then you are my people. One of the saddest loses I ever experienced when when a box from my room was lost when we returned from living in Europe. Not only did I lose all of my childhood comic book and action figure collection, I also lost my collection of these which was substantial.
I had these on all subject and bought many from my travels. And you ask me why I work on my time machine daily. I know exactly where I will go once that project is complete.

The true joy of pushing down that plastic button and - schhholllot - the new image pops up. I still have mine it's in my sister's basement all tucked up nice and safe.
I will go and find it and spin again.
I have no idea where mine went. I had a red one from Disneyland that I got a LONG time ago...
I have one downstairs with Snow White on it!!
I had a Star Trek one,the 7 ancient wonders of the world and a Lost In Space. Also had the projector so i could watch them on the wall!
I had a 3D Masters of the Universe disc.
My two favourites were the Star Trek one (pictures from the Omega Glory) and Planet of the Apes (pictures from one of the TV episodes).
I never figured out how they made the pictures look 3D.
Loved them, and still have my little red viewer with "Joey" written on it. Somewhere. And a bunch of reels. Good times.
I still have mine. My favorite was the one from our trip to Disneyland. My viewer is red too!
I think it would be perfect if you could make a flash drive look like one of those.

When I was a kid in the 50s, Viewmasters were in every home. Took you to Disneyland when you couldn't go in person.
Like most people here I used to have a Viewmaster, with various different reels, but of course it's long gone now. I used to have images from the Max Fleischer Superman on one - they were awesome!
ooh i used to have these, and mine was red too :) Definitely disney reel for me, which was extra special, as I was stuck all the way in Asia and could only dream of Disneyland :D
Mine was black, heavy, smooth and lit up! I had the Addams Family and Lost in Space. Also Charlie Brown with 3d models. So much fun!
Somebody is selling your stuff right now on e-Bay.
