View-Master returns

Oh, View-Master, we can never forget your cherry red plastic form or the clanging sound of your reel-changer — none other could make a faded 3D Yosemite scene look so good. And since it's View-Master's 65th anniversary this year Fisher-Price has introduced a limited-edition boxed-set with 8 reels for each decade of its life and a specially-decorated classic viewer. One fun fact we learned while wading through all of Fisher-Price's PR junk, is that the View-Master was used by the US military during WWII to show training reels.
