Dear Friend,

Michael is a devoted View Master collector and he appreciates Chinese art. 
He paid a lot of money to have the "Chinese Art" View Master set (4 volumes
with thousands of VM images of Chinese Art objects) shipped from the USA to
Australia.  (I know because I sold it to him! :-))  His reference to "rip
offs"  was regarding the fact that the images were copied from VM sets.  No
connection with the quality of the product, which he says is original and
different from others.  I am sure he would have picked a different word if
he knew that this would have bothered you.

So, what's new and exciting (stereo related) in the Orient?

PS. If anyone has a copy of VM set C007 (some kind of wedding, photography
is bad I hear, another Greek rip-off like gyros and feta cheese) I'd happy
to take it off their hands.  I pay shipping too!!! :-)
