Event Details

Escape this Summer into the magical 3D world of View-MasterTM stereograms! The West Des Moines Library display case will feature stereographic artifacts from the Sawyers Company throughout the company’s history—from the original 1939 viewer to today’s models from Mattel. Whether you enjoy the sheer wonder of 3D illusion, the optical science behind stereograms or just want to take a trip down memory lane, there will be something for everyone in this display. Come see how View-MasterTM stereograms began as an educational tool but became one of American’s iconic toys. This display feature's a resident's private collection.
