I've been looking for a long time for one of those (I guess extinct) old
slide viewers -- you know, a hand held device you insert the slide in, press
a little button to activate the little light bulb, for easy viewing.  I
have, literally also, thousands of my folks' slides I need to go through to
identify and keep or not, and no slide projector.  Holding slides up to the
light in the room just doesn't wash.  Then there are the reel to reel home
movies...
