Restore This Sawyers View-Master Model F
This lighted View-Master is a great beginner's restoration project! There are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to clean corroded contacts and polish the Bakelite housing.
The Sawyers View-Master Model F (#2026) was produced between 1959 and 1966 and originally retailed for $3.95 (reels cost 35c). It was the last of the View-Masters to be made from Bakelite. It ran from 2 'C' size cells or an external power source. At 5.5x magnification It offered a slightly larger view than the Model C.
We think this View-Master has all the parts, but we don't know for sure! Comes with some random reels in poor-to-fair condition.
