Vintage Sawyers Viewmaster Bakelite Model C

View-Master began it's commercial life in 1939 as a home-entertainment medium intended for adults and was invented by William Gruber and marketed by Harold Graves through Edwin and Fred Mayer's photo-finishing, postcard, and greeting card company, Sawyer's . The toy was a successor to the stereograph viewer popularized in the 19th century by Oliver Wendell Holmes. But View-Master was an improvement over the traditional stereograph; it offered seven stereo views on each reel, compared with the stereograph's one view per card, and provided them in color by using Kodak's (then-) new color transparency film, Kodachrome.

From 1939 to 1950, View-Master reels were sold individually. In the early 1950s, Sawyer's had a sufficient catalog of titles to begin grouping existing single reels into packets according to common subjects (for example, reels 251, 252, & 253 were sold as a Carlsbad Cavernspacket). In 1951 Sawyer's bought out the rival Tru-Vue company, which produced stereo views on 35mm film strips. The takeover eliminated View-Master's chief competitor, but of perhaps greater significance was the acquisition of Tru-Vue's license with Walt Disney Studios. In the mid-1950s Sawyer's exploited this asset to produce reels and packets devoted not only to Disney's animated characters but to the newly-opened Disneyland theme park and the studio's growing range of television shows. The relationship between View-Master and Disney has continued uninterrupted to the present day.
