Posted project update #14View-Master Promotion
Post CommentHello Kickstarter Supporters,
If any of you are attending the New York Maker Faire this Saturday and Sunday, be sure to stop by the Wurlington Press booth (#6806) to see the display of American Ruins view-master reels:
http://makerfaire.com/newyork/2011/
Also, the reels are now available on Amazon, if you are looking for a gift or to add to your view-master collection. Would anyone care to write a short review on Amazon?
See you this weekend!

commented on a projectYes, I am sending out the packages a few at a time. Apologies if you haven't received yours yet. There is an enormous stack of half assembled boxes in my living room, it may take a while before they are all finished!

Posted project update #9Proofs Have Arrived!
Just yesterday I received proofs of the three View-Master reels back from the photo lab. Its very exciting to finally get to see the photos in vivid color 3D slides, instead of just on the computer screen. One or two of the photos need some corrections, but the rest look great!
There's still lots of work that needs to be done on the booklets and envelopes, so the project is not nearly finished. I will keep you posted.
Matt

Thanks for sharing the rendering, it looks great!
I'm not sure if you saw this recent article, but apparently the MRH building has been "taken over" by squatters (?) and has suffered a lot of damage, so now it's future is uncertain:

Thanks, Matt! We thoroughly enjoyed looking at the reels. You did a great job! Sorry we're so late in responding. Best wishes on the Foto Expo exhibit this Saturday. Wish we could be there...
