Vintage Fisher-Price Movie Viewer (1970s-1980s)
An old Movie Viewer by Fisher Price Toys. It’s a cream color now but was originally whiter. As the colored dial on the right side is spun it creates a quick ticking sound. The Device itself was used to view short film cartridges of shows like Sesame Street, combining play with early media interaction.
ID: A photograph of an old Movie Viewer that is yellowing with age. It has a movie cartridge in the back of an old sesame street scene. There is a dial on the right side that is separated into thirds by color. Also on the right side, directly beside the view hole on the front is a turn wheel used to focus the picture. The Shape of the object Looks somewhat like a speed gun used by police. There is a handle on the bottom to grab. To view the cartridge inside there is a small plastic cover on the opposite side of the cartridge that’s used to view the scene.
