Between 1970 and 1981, GAF produced the Talking View-Master. This monstrosity used similar reels to the more common model, with the addition of a plastic record attached. Each time you pressed the lever to change the slide, an audio clip lasting 10 to 20 seconds would play. Unsurprisingly, the sound quality was terrible. An extensive breakdown of this and other View-Master models can be found here.
Inspired by the outlandishness of the Talking View-Master, I've created my next unlikely reel package - this time featuring Martin Scorsese's 1976 ode to urban decay, Taxi Driver.
