Here is a vintage viewmaster from the 1950s. I believe that this is the Model E viewmaster. The writing on the back indicates that it is made in the USA by Sawyer's Inc. The item is brown bakelite material and is in good condition. It works great. The only flaw that I saw is that the outer plastic on the eyes is not flush on either side. It does not affect the view of the slides.This also comes with 38 reels. The flaws will be noted if the reels do not turn properly or if there are flaws on the pictures. Expect that the surface of the reels may have some roughness or bubbling. Here are the reels that it comes with:1) 960 Cisco Kid and 956 Hopalong Cassidy in the original sleeve- 19532) PA 1, 2 and 3- These are slides for Pennsylvania with original sleeve- 1955- Reel 3 has some grainyness3) Beverly HillBillies- Elly Starts to School- 3 reels- 1963- Reel 3 has some grainyness- Comes with Storybook4) Quick Draw McGraw in Fool's Gold- 3 reels 1961- Comes with Storybook5) Hanna Barbera- Yogi Bear B5122, Huckleberry Hound B5121 and5123- 1960- Comes with Storybook although it has a crease6) Modern Israel Reels B2241-2243, one of the reels has a black mark on the lower left panel- Comes with guidebooklet to Israel7) Project a show 1B9021, Grand Canyon A3611 and Switzerland B18538) Project a show 1B9023-25, Wild Animals, World Cities, and People of Other lands9) Hawaiian Flowers A1211, The Louvre C1783, Africa B096310) Jack and the Beanstalk B3141, The Christmas Story Reel XM-3 and The Ugly Duckling B314211) Boat Builders 3054 (Mickey Mouse 1986), Project a show Capital 1B9022, Scenic Wonders DR-4912) Yellowstone National Park A3061, BANFF National Bark A0041, India B235113) Aesop's Fables, Grasshopper and Ant B3091, Cinderella B3131, Three Little Pigs B3102- 1953This lot also comes with the guided projection tours booklet that goes with the project a show slides. There are several pamphlets from Sawyer's that advertised other reels that you could order by mailaway including some pictures of certain reels.The pictures doe not include every lot that is included because I used my full allotment of 12 pictures.Terms and Conditions:Shipping is free on this item, but the seller chooses the method of shipping. If buyer wants expedited shipping, then buyer should contact me prior to purchase. Buyer will be responsible for the difference in cost between the shipping methods. Do not buy first, then request expedited shipping because I may not be able to accommodate your request when it is made. I want to accommodate reasonable requests, but I ship from my home. It is rare that I can actually get to the post office during the week.It is imperative that you read the item description prior to bidding. In the event that you have any questions regarding this auction, please contact me prior to bidding. I usually respond within 24 hours of receiving a message, but I cannot guarantee that I can always do so. I attempt to describe every item as accurately as possible, but I am not an expert.

I try to be thorough with descriptions, however, potential buyers should note that most items for sale are vintage and more than likely have been well loved for many years. This results in normal wear and tear and creates the character that we all love in vintage items. Normal signs of use may not always be specified in the condition report, but should be expected in items that are vintage.Payment is due within 3 days of auction end. If you do not pay within three days, then I will contact you once to request payment. If you do not pay within 48 hours of this message, then I will open a case with eBay. I believe that good communication is crucial to resolving any issues between buyer and seller. Thus, I will always try to communicate at least once when a problem arises and I hope that any buyers will do... read more
