Viewfinders? Photo Viewers? Photo Postcards?

I don't know what to call these...except cool. Here's one per land (circa late 50's) plus a general Disneyland one. I've had multiples of these with different photos, so there's no telling how many unique versions of each were made.

I wonder if these would actually make it through the mail as they were intended.

Oh man I had a ton of these... but it wasn't the 50's... late 70's early 80's maybe?

Nope...these ones are from much earlier than that.

Jed- one of mine has actual postmarks and cancels.
The card is a little worse for wear, but the viewer appears to be in fine condition.

These simple souvenirs can go for CRAZY prices when they come up on ebay... which is why I don't have any.

Great collection!

Wow, I had forgotten all about these! My grandparents had a yellow one that I looked at all the time when I was little (mid 1970's). Wonder what happened to it? Thanks for the memories, this is a great site.
