The View-Master Model J was
produced between 1975 and 1994. This was only manufactured in Belgium
and is also known as the European Model 10 (see
History for an explanation of this
numbering). It is available in a large
number of different colour variations with red being the most common. There was even a special purple
version produced to celebrate the wedding of Prince Charles to Lady
Diana that came in a presentation pack with reels. See the "Face
Viewers" page to see the model J used as one variant of a Mickey
Mouse View-Master.
