These books were sold in a standard version without the Tru-view or boxes,
and are quite common, don't know the exact number made. The storage boxes
were sold as an extra.

For an additional .35 cents you could get yours shipped with your choice of a
Tru-View card or a View-Master Reel. These are much harder to find.

Some neat stuff out there if you look hard.

Great find.
