There Was A TALKING VIEWMASTER???

 
How long were you going to keep this information from me?

You didn't know...?

I was woefully uninformed.

I've never heard of these either -- I bet they weren't sold in Canada.

david_b said...

Yeah, I suppose Canada didn't sell 'em.

Instead, all us rednecks and hippies got the good stuff ONCE AGAIN.

And what kind of civilization did you leave the rest of us with all your talking viewmaster advantages???

I had a Batman and Robin (from the TV series) talking disc for my Viewmaster. I probably came close to wearing that thing out, I viewed it so many times.

But what I really loved was this little movie camera thing. You'd put these cartridges into it, and wind the handle, and it would play (silent) movies. One of the keen things was that you could also spin it backwards. I had a Bugs Bunny cartoon on it, and I played it backwards probably more than forwards.

I was a lonely, strange child.

Hey backwards is just another story...and a better cartoon than the forward one. I would have done the same...but then added a soundtrack.

I´ve never seen one of those. They weren´t sold in Mexico.
