Retro Travel Time

For nearly a century kids of all ages in North America have enjoyed playing with  classic the View-Master. Now there’s a wonderful YouTube channel that combines travel and history in a unique format. Created by Dave Machin, the channel remixes the views and locations of the images from a vintage View-Master reel with contemporary images.

Each 20-minute video examines the historic views of a travelogue View-Master reel and then Machin and his wife travel there to discover those exact same views today. The wonderful videos are cleverly written and well researched. The short videos are a fun watch, but educational as well.
