Title: What was it called ????
Post by: marra on 19, March, 2012 - 18:42:56
Hi. Ok, me heed is trying to remember what it was called. Back in the late 70's early 80's it was a red binoculars looking gadget that you loaded a disc of pictures on, usually a film or Disney thing and you could press a lever at the side to turn it round to the next picture. What was it called ? ......  ???  ???  ???
