Rare View-Master pics on the web.

[P3D Gabriel Jacob <jacob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Lincoln Kamm mentioned a few days ago that he updated his 3-D STUFF
web page. Thanks for letting us know there has been recent changes
to your web site, since I haven't checked it out in a while. Keep up
the good work. Jamie Drouin's write up about Tintin's V-M reel set
EXPLORERS ON THE MOON, brought back some memories, since I have that
one from childhood. It was done very well as Jamie comments. Excerpt
from Jamie's comments on Lincoln Kamm's web site.

>One of the nicest images, in particular, is the rocket taking off from Earth.
>Decending lines help to define the rocket as three dimensional object seen in
>perspective. The fumes extend far back into the frame where you can see the
>launchpad and surrounding landscape.

For the benefit of P3D members that want to see the 3d picture that
Jamie mentions above, I have put it up on my web space as a stereo
pair and also as a B&W anaglyph. BTW, I think this is a rare opportunity
to see an actual example of V-M reels on the web. There have been none
that I know of on any web site.

As a 128k stereo pair:
