A Childhood find

7:52PM, March 28th, 2004

My brother was rifling through a box of his stuff that he’d long since packed and he came across the old Viewmaster, a very favourite toy of our childhood.

Something really draws me into this little plastic wonder. We found quite a few reels, including some Alf, Inspector Gadget and my personal favourite, the 60s TV Show Batman, complete with cheesy onomatopaeic words. I love the 3D images (remember my previous exploits? - I can’t find the link!), and they make me duck for cover as Catwoman takes a swipe, and reach for the notepad to take down design tips from the Batcave for my future abode.



As I grimace and move around trying to find the best light, the joy these reels bring me, at least for now, surpasse the novelty of any kind of paid television, even if I do go cross-eyed and get a major headache.
