We have been selling the Taylor Merchant viewer for several years but have
always been in search of a better viewer to fit the requirements of being
easily mailed and having quailty and a low price (under $5)  We have always
been pleased with the quality of the plastic SVN viewer (as sold by Reel
3D), but it isn't easily mailed.

We found a product that we thought we would try out.  It's our VEU viewer.
Since it was a new product, we were anxious to see what the feedback would
be.  To date, the viewers have been very popular and we have sold out of the
2X2 format. And have very few of the Realist Format left in stock. Our new
order is on its way.

The light grabbing concept is a bit different since the light comes in at
the top rather than from the front.  And the slide or slides fit in pockets
in front of the flap that grabs the light.  Some novices have put the slide
in the incorrect place and have had some trouble. It has caused us to
include instructions with the sale of the viewers. The cardboard material
appears to be light-weight,  and it is.  But it is actually stiffer and
weighs the same as the mush paper of the Merchant Taylor viewer. So
thickness doesn't always translate into strength.

There is a plastic pouch that comes with each viewer.  On one side it holds
the viewer and on the other - 3 Realist Format slides or 3 - 2x2 pairs,
making the whole package a handsome gift which is easily mailed.

Large quantity prices (100+) will be available at considerable discount.

Our thanks to Paul Young for bringing our viewer to this format's attention.

We will also be carrying the plastic inexpensive viewers reviewed in "Stereo
World" a couple of issues ago. There's an inexpensive light source available
also. And I'm excited about the posibillities of this - a card (similar to
Tru-vue) that holds 5 stereo images in 5P or 7P format. So please watch for
our product announcements.  All of these affordably priced.
