P3D Discovery Channel: Favorite Toys

I had the good fortune to wake up last night (while dozing in front of the tube)
in time to catch a segment of the Discovery Channel program "Favorite Toys" all
about our secret love - Viewmaster!

The presentation was extremely well done with some history of both stereoscopy and
VM (beginning with Walter Gruber, founder), and images of many different viewers
(including a rare brown model "C") and slides (sorry, mono). There were interviews
with a couple VM past and present employees, one of whom I recognized as having
been at NSA Richmond.

Overall a worthwhile segment.  Catch it if you can.

Thom
