View-Master Model E BlackViewer - with cream pull - Scarce Variation - vintage

View-Master Model E BlackViewer - with cream pull Scarce Variation vintage - Excellent Condition The scarce variation of the Black Model E viewer - the black bakelite body/ cream pull instead of the regular red pull The black bakelite  proved very brittle, thus the change to a less brittle brown bakelite, early in the Model E's production.  Beside the obvious color difference from the brown viewer, there is an internal plate difference. It is natural silver aluminum for the black model E and brown painted for the brown E.   It was made in very limited numbers and thus rather uncommon. Most commonly found with the black Model E viewer is the red pull.  But a cream  plastic pull (advance knob) is also found and is even rarer than the red.
