White Printed Reels  The fifth generation reels, 1946 to 1960, are characterized by "typeset" lettering on bright white paper which came to be called White Printed Reels by collectors. Each reel has its own unique number, beginning with the number 4 and manufactured with a variety of face styles. This type of reel was produced for the longest duration and  hundreds of reel titles are available only in this style of reel. So White Printed Reels usually comprise the major style of reels in a View-Master reel collector's collection. In that era, View-Master photographers traveled the world taking images, bringing to you scenes of places you just visited and wanted to remember, or places you just dreamed of visiting, all in 3D stereo, just like you were there in the picture - scenes,  which are now so changed or long-gone.
