Portland Oregon, the home of View-Master, is known as the "City of Roses", and since 1907 has held the Rose Festival, which today attracts several million people. There are 14 pretty young women chosen from Portland area high schools. One is to be chosen Rose Queen.
From 1973 to 1985 the GAF View-Master Company produced a set of reels commemorating this pageant. There are scenes of the pretty young girls touring the plant and pictures were taken with the girls posing in group settings but also alongside View-Master personnel and executives.
A highlight of the tour was when the girls were invited back for a luncheon and were presented a set of their own pictures in 3-D on View-Master reels with a View-Master viewer. A great 3-D scene was taken when they all pick up the viewers and see themselves in 3-D! This additional reel was added and then all reels were given to everyone after the Rose Parade.
These reels are quite hard to find, since they had a very low print run and were never offered for sale to the public. They were given away to View-Master employees and the girls and personnel of the Rose Festival.
Condition is excellent and the pictures are very clean and bright.
These reels were
not
made with Kodachrome film, but, as the pictures show, most of the colors remain intact.
