Update #14: View-Master Promotion

Posted on September 15, 2011

Hello 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:

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!
