[Geysers] Yellowstone viewmaster reels

[V]

Hi Becky,

I have the same set as you.  Here is a great site 
with the explaination of what happened when
they made them numbered sets.

I have about 12 different reels of Yellowstone.
They are on eBay quite often.  I also have some 
Tru-Vue sets!  Always fun to check out!  Many 
have Geysers on them!

To give you an idea-

I suggest using Google Search and type in 
Yellowstone Viewmaster.  You'll find many 
on ebay and other websites!
