Description

"Reel 3-D News" 1978-1980 - All Three Years of each volume of this newsletter on CD in searchable PDF Format!
In 1976 Susan Pinsky and David Starkman bought a library box of 200 View-Master reels at a garage sale. A week later they bought another smaller box, which included a little promotional paper (from 1952) for the then "new" View-Master Personal Stereo Camera. They decided that it would be great fun to be able to make their own View-Master reels, and decided to find one of these old cameras. In their search for information they bought old photo magazines from the late 1940's and early 1950's, cut out every piece of advertising and articles they could, and learned about the stereo photography "boom" of that period.
In their quest to find and share information, they decided to start an illustrated newsletter called "Reel 3-D News". They published the first issue in January 1978. The newsletter quickly expanded beyond View-Master to incorporate all forms of 3-D photography, with an emphasis on the 3-D slide boom of the 1950's. "Reel 3-D News" ceased publication at the end of it's third year, in 1980. (Reel 3-D Enterprises continued on, as a mail-order supplier of 3-D products from 1978 through 2004).
Due to the continuous demand for historical and useful information, Bound Edition photocopy reprints were in continuous publication until 2004.
Now, for the first time, we have made a complete set of all three years of "Reel 3-D News" available on a CD in a searchable PDF format.
Divided into Volumes by year, each year also includes a cover and a Table of Contents.
Combined they include 448 pages full of 3-D How-To Information
, View-Master viewer and reel history, a 56 page Reference Guide to 3-D cameras, viewers, projectors, accessories and more equipment, 3-D Film Reviews, and lots of other stimulating and interesting 3-D information. The 1979 Reference Guide issues comprise a compilation of ALL of the 3-D Cameras, Viewers, Projectors and Accessories that were in the "big three" Photo Magazine annual equipment issues from 1947 to 1960 with photos and descriptions.
