@ Bob ~ Yeah, perhaps I'm simply remembering a post card set, although on e-Bay, I do see View Master reels for other museums, so it is possible. I just can't remember.@ Craig ~ That sure looks like...

I remember Harryhausen saying he hated those models. And the close up puppets didn't resemble the animation models at all.
