    viewmaster reel question: price guide or sites?

    Inspired by the viewmaster post a few items down on this forum, I wanted to ask: I have one particular set that I think may be worth some money. The reels are dated 1948 and in good shape. This set features

    1. The Three Little Pigs
    2. The Ugly Duckling
    3. Little Black Sambo

    The racism aside, the Little Black Sambo reel is what I am curious about. The reels are still in their original folder (in good shape) and literally a somewhat torn up cover piece showing a picture from the 3 little pigs and listing the other two reels in this set. All of these werre made using the puppets that look similar to Rankin/Bass style of animation (or the general viewmaster look when no real actors were being used).

    while on subject, I also have a promo reel that list up and coming titles for viewmaster. It shows one picture of the movie version of Godzilla saying he is coming soon, but the picture they used is from Godzilla's Revenge and shows Gabera and some of the other monsters that were in the film.

    Can anyone direct me to where I could find more info as to if it is worth anything aside from Ebay?
